South Korea continues to bolster its aerial reconnaissance capabilities with a new Medium-Altitude Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (MUAV) modeled after America’s MQ-9 Reaper drone.
The drone measures 13 meters (43 feet) in length with a 26-meter (85-foot) wingspan, and is powered by a single 1,200-horsepower turboprop engine.
Imagery suggests a prominent belly radome, likely housing a synthetic aperture radar alongside datalink and beyond-line-of-sight communication systems.
