A US company has developed the world's largest unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) called "Raven X", which it claims can deliver satellites in a very short time and at a very low cost. Will be able to reach space.
Developed by a company called Ayum, the drone is 80 feet long and 18 feet wide, with a wingspan of 60 feet.
Despite its large size, it will only need one mile of runway for takeoff and landing.
The company claims that it will be able to fly fully automated and return to the ground in the same way, but based on all the drones built so far, it is more accurate to say that although it will not have a pilot on board. But one or the other pilot must be controlling it "from afar", meaning we can call it semi-automatic, but it will not be fully automatic.
Raven X drones are very tough and can fly in any weather. Currently, 70% of the "remaining" drones that land after a flight are reused.
The company aims to develop drones as soon as possible that can be 100% reusable for one flight after another.
