Isareli RA-01 stealth UCAV in action,
Maybe we aren't importing the right drones from isarel, instead of Hermes they should have make case for these,
Long range loitering drones Will give you longer striking range, saturates enemy AD, but there are now solution for it with marginal cost, countries will no induct in large scale,
But it's harder to shot down something which you find difficult to detect, track & lock onto it, the warfare is evolving and we have to be one step ahead, we already missed as first mover in drone warfare and playing catch it up,
Having stealth UCAV can change lot of equation, to detect track lock into it you need complex AD, the economic costs to maintain the entire kill chain also be lot higher, not everyone will have the ability to shoot it down only a few,
We already have the tech, we already have the VLO drone, but as usual our priorities are missing, we already move ahead from Shahed 136, geran type of drones with requirements of AI technology, GPS Denial enviornment, EW system, but having SWIFT K in hundreds will put as ahead of the curve,
Stealth- yes
Autonomous -yes
This project has gone Cold, no new updates, Swift -K can fill the gap between Ghatak & loitering drones,
