FLYCAT – a ground target engagement system

A smart loitering munition (kamikaze) with automated use of route flight and target tracking (autonomous operation under electronic warfare). It can be used in conjunction with a reconnaissance vehicle (target designation and repeater). Visually, it looks like a missile with X-shaped wings, which allows it to maneuver well in all axes (unlike aircraft-type drones). The cardinal difference is the absence of the need for satellite navigation (GPS), and the equipment with intelligent navigation and communication guidance modules.
