Israeli defense forces are receiving Skylark mini-unmanned aerial
vehicles that can be carried in a pack by a single soldier. Built
by Elbit Systems, the UAVs are propelled by a quiet electric motor
and are totally autonomous in fight.
Officials said the diminutive craft have been designed for day
and night operation and have a range of 10 km.
The Skylarks became operational three months ago.
