Electro-optical/infrared sensor combining daylight cameras and thermal imagers for real-time target detection, tracking, and identification in military drones.

A communication link between a drone and its control station via satellite relay, enabling beyond-line-of-sight (BLOS) operations.

Aircraft design and technology features that reduce detection by radar, infrared, acoustic, and other sensors through shaping, materials, and emissions control.

Swarming is the coordinated operation of multiple autonomous or semi‑autonomous drones that communicate and act together to achieve a mission objective.
