The American military unmanned aerial vehicle Meggitt GT-400 is equipped with a jet-type power plant, which allows the device to accelerate to a maximum flight speed of 740 km / h, which is applicable in cases of testing anti-aircraft weapons operating at subsonic speeds. However, it is important to take into account the fact that the maximum flight duration of this aircraft is quite limited, and is only 30 minutes, while the effective range of the UAV is 120 kilometers.
