“Zarba” UAV’s Israeli defense company Aeronautics LTD Orbiter 1K loitering unmanned system Azeri version,

Given a specific waypoint, the loitering “Zarba” can detect and destroy a moving or a stationary target. The system can also operate on the base of a given area range: the “Zarba” independently scans the area, detects and destroys the target – moving or stationary. In case the target wasn’t detected or in any change of plans, the system’s recovery capability allows it to return to its base camp and land safely using a parachute and an airbag. Launched from a catapult, the “Zarba” can fly for 2-3 hours, carrying a multi-sensor camera with day-and-night channels. The “Zarba” loitering system is compact and easily controlled from a personal GCS.
