Here’s The Best Military Drones From Around The World
BAE Systems Taranis
The Celtic god of thunder – Taranis – is the name sake for this still-developing UCAV from BAE Systems. The unmanned combat aerial vehicle will rely on stealth and payload versatility once it is in service, which is expected in 2030. A Rolls Royce Adour engine (similar to the one used in the Dassault nEUROn) will give it speeds in the range of 500-700 miles per hour. It’s range is unknown, it’s flight ceiling should be around 50,000 feet, and it’s dimensions are roughly 40 feet long with a 33-foot wingspan.
