The VTUAV is a versatile aerial vehicle capable of autonomous takeoff and landing from any aviation-capable warship. The primary function of the RQ-8A Fire Scout is to provide information about combat situations and perform precise targeting on land or sea. This aircraft offers excellent endurance, superior performance, sophisticated payloads, autonomous operation, and high autonomy.
RQ-8B Black Hawk

It has delivered vital supplies to troops, as well as saved lives in many combat zones. The Black Hawk can be used for day or night operations and is capable of other functions, such as aerial firefighting or border patrol.
RQ-9 Reaper
The RQ-9 Reaper helicopter is a military drone that has a wingspan measuring 20 meters. It is controlled by a satellite command system. Crews can search for targets or observe terrain from several kilometers away with multiple sensors, including an e-thermograph camera. The drone can read license plates from up to two miles away. The drone can reach its target within 1.2 seconds of receiving the operator's satellite link command.
AQM-34
The AQM-34 military drone helicopter has an impressive range and impressive maneuverability. It can fly missions at low altitudes. This aircraft was used by the United States in combat operations in Vietnam and Korea. In fact, the AQM-34 was one of the first unmanned aircraft in service. It flew its first flight in March 1976. Its service ceiling was between 65 and 70,000 feet.
Predator
The Predator is a military drone helicopter developed by Abraham Karem. The Predator was built by Karem in his Los Angeles garage. But, after trying to sell the helicopter to the military it became bankrupt. Two brothers, who owned General Atomics, a leading nuclear energy company, saved him in 1991. Their company invented the Predator, and the Predator was allowed to be tested in 2003. However, the Predator could not be used on missions without being modified to fit the needs of government agencies.
