In a significant stride for India’s aerospace and defense sector, Flying Wedge Defence & Aerospace has showcased a cutting-edge prototype of an Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle (UCAV) at a recent event. Dubbed the “Autonomous Aerial Aircraft,” this prototype bears a striking resemblance to SR-UAV (Surveillance and Reconnaissance Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) class systems, signaling a promising advancement in indigenous defense technology.
The unveiling took place at an exhibition aligned with the “Make in India” initiative, in collaboration with Suhas Tejaskanda, as indicated by the event branding. The prototype was displayed at Flying Wedge’s facility located at Bengaluru, Karnataka . The sleek, stealth-inspired design of the UCAV, with its angular lines and matte black finish, suggests a focus on low-observability and high maneuverability—key traits for modern combat drones.
Flying Wedge’s Autonomous Aerial Aircraft is designed to operate without human intervention, leveraging advanced autonomous systems for navigation, targeting, and mission execution. While specific technical details remain undisclosed, the prototype’s SR-UAV-like configuration hints at its potential for both surveillance and combat roles. This dual capability could make it a versatile asset for the Indian armed forces, addressing the growing need for unmanned systems in modern warfare.
