SkyDefense Unveils CobraJet Fighter Drone With AI Swarm-Hunting Tech
Colorado-based defense tech firm SkyDefense has revealed CobraJet, an AI-powered electric vertical take-off and landing fighter drone designed to defend critical infrastructure and military bases.
Capable of speeds over 200 miles per hour (320 kilometers per hour), the aerial asset can track and neutralize multiple fast, evasive targets in a single mission.
It carries weapons in an internal bay or on underbelly mounts, with the option to strike ground or naval targets using smart glide bombs.
Electric ducted fans and Amprius solid-state batteries power CobraJet’s thrust vectoring, delivering the needed agility and endurance in high-risk missions.
Available in three trijet variants — V4 and V6 (Group 2) and V8 (Group 3) — it sports a 3D-printed carbon fiber airframe modeled after the F-35B, F-22, and future F-47 jets.
