Full specifications

Performance

Speed, range, altitude and engagement capability.

Performance specifications
Max speed Maximum level speed. For aircraft this is at optimal altitude; for ground vehicles, top road speed. Higher means faster response and better kinematic performance.	1,000 km/h Top 4% of UAVs

Firepower

Armament, payload and guidance.

Firepower specifications
Weapons payload Maximum ordnance weight the platform can carry. Higher means more strike capacity per sortie.	480 kg Stronger than 67% of UAVs

Protection

Armor, countermeasures and survivability.

Protection specifications
Signature reduction Radar cross-section shaping, RAM coatings, IR suppression. Actual RCS values are classified.	Low-observable airframe with V-tail and trapezoidal wings, internal weapons bay

Physical

Dimensions, weight and crew.

Physical specifications
Length Overall length including gun/probe where applicable.	11 m
Wingspan Wingtip-to-wingtip span.	7 m
Combat weight Fully loaded weight. Lighter eases transport and bridging limits; heavier often means more armor.	4,000 kg
Crew Personnel required to operate. Fewer reduces exposure; autoloaders trade a loader for mechanical complexity.	0
