The American defense company SkyDefense, based in Colorado, has introduced a new development — the CobraJet unmanned aerial vehicle. It is a high-speed electric fighter with vertical takeoff and landing, designed to protect critical infrastructure and military installations.
The CobraJet is capable of speeds of over 200 miles per hour (about 320 kilometers per hour) and is equipped with artificial intelligence, which allows it to autonomously detect, track and neutralize several fast and inconspicuous targets — for example, enemy drones — in a single mission. Its vertical takeoff and landing capability makes it particularly flexible to use, as it does not require a long runway to launch.
The drone's weapons are placed both in the inner compartment and on the outer nodes under the fuselage. It can use guided gliding bombs for pinpoint strikes on land and sea targets, which extends its functionality beyond drone defense tasks.
The development of CobraJet reflects the growing need for fast, autonomous and maneuverable systems capable of effectively countering modern threats, especially in environments where traditional aviation may not be operational enough.
