Brezpilotno bojno letalo

Brezpilotno bojno letalo (UCAV) (ang. Unmanned combat air vehicle tudi Combat drone) je brezpilotno letalo, ki je po navadi oboroženo.^[1]Z zrakoplovom upravljajo operaterji (piloti) na zemlji.

MQ-9 Reaper

UCAV-i imajo prednost pred letali s človeško posadko, da ne potrebujejo kokpita, ne potrebujejo krmilnih palic, katapultnega sedeža, sistema za presurizacijo in oklepa. Zato so plovila UCAV manjša, lažja in cenejša.Trenutna generacija brezpilotnih letal je še v povojih, večinoma imajo manjše sposobnosti kot primerljivi lovci.
