In 2005 Rob L Cohen and writer W D Richter imagined a near future in which unmanned combat aerial vehicle, controlled by artificial intelligence could serve alongside human pilots. Neuron UCAV Enters Final Assembly. Details of the project are classified. EC02-0295-3. “Under the test program, a long-duration flight time UCAV Okhotnik has performed its first flight,” the defense ministry said in a press release. Ghatak is an autonomous stealthy unmanned combat air vehicle (UCAV), being developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation for the Indian Air Force. The design work on the UCAV is to be carried out by Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA). The Third Prototype of Turkey’s Akinci UCAV Makes First Flight The Third Prototype of Turkey’s Akinci UCAV Makes First Flight. Live.

According to a report prepared by Shiv Aroor, India’s Public sector Aerospace Design Major Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA) and Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IITK) who are jointly working on development of India’s first Stealth unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) are planning to carry out first flight trials of a scaled model of Ghatak UCAV Codenamed SWiFT (Short … Russia’s Stealthy Hunter UAV Just Dropped a 1,100 Pound Bomb. It is intended to develop technologies required in the final Ghatak UCAV. The first X-45 flight took place at Edwards Air Force Base on May 22nd, 2002, and the second example flew six months later. As first reported by Livefist, this could be either a mockup or a sub-scale flying model of the SWiFT (Stealth Wing Flying Testbed), the technology demonstrator designed and built in collaboration with the Aeronautical Development Establishment (ADE) to prove technologies for the Ghatak. Primarily though, the Ghatak is simply being developed as an unmanned bomber (A temporary working title even identified it as the Indian Unmanned Strike Air Vehicle or IUSAV). All this came 22 months after the first flight of the X-47B. According to the sources, the image is the first appearance of Ghatak scaled-downed prototype with its undercarriage and landing gear. HAL AURA was the initial project name for the development of the UCAV for Indian Airforce.
