Kratos Defense teased its stealthy Thanatos unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) today during their Q3 2023 financial results, and they are currently in discussions with a potential customer for this tactical drone system.
Technical specifications have not yet been revealed, although we can see a tailless design, complete with a shovel-style nose and a recessed exhaust system. Its diamond-shaped wings may greatly reduce drag at supersonic speeds, while the US Air Force logo could mean a government contract is in the works.
