Missiles & Drones

Aboard the General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper (Predator B), an advanced suite of sensors allows this drone to seek out targets and strike from more than 600 miles away. As an unmanned aircraft and the world’s largest drone, the Northrop Grumman RQ-4 Global Hawk uses radar, sensors, and optical systems -- as well as a team of operators -- to conduct far-reaching surveillance and storm-tracking. The DOK-ING MV4 drone is a jack-of-all-trades machine, using advanced video systems and situational awareness to dispose of bombs and landmines and clear battle areas. Protecting citizens from incoming attacks, Israel’s Iron Dome uses radar and a battle management weapon control centre to track and intercept enemy missiles. Guided by an onboard computer and able to carry nuclear or conventional warheads, the Tomahawk Cruise Missile zeroes in on targets up to 1,000 miles away and provides crucial data to military analysts post-hit.
