What's new

DRDO shows glimpses of IUSAV Combat Drone again

The UCAV will be bigger than we though it will be around 15 ton. Much larger than Neuron or Taranis.
I have read that article which said 15 ton Kaveri's dry weight itself is around 1.1 tons
Add 1 or half a ton for the armaments or the pods.....that leaves us with only 10-12 tons for the entire drone barring the power plant and weapons ....
it will increase the cost as well (more than 7-8 million USD per drone probably)

I doubt 15 ton will suffice.....
I have read that article which said 15 ton but Kaveri's dry weight itself is around 11 tons
Add 1 or half a ton for the armaments or the pods.....that leaves us with only 3-4 tons for the entire drone barring the power plant and weapons .....
if they pull this off then it will be really commendable....

I think you got something wrong here bro. Kaveri dry weight is 1.2 ton. LCA empty weight is 6.5 tons. So at 15 tons this UCAV will be a large one. I think it will be much smaller than 15 ton.
