Payload(kg):10
Endurance(min):30-40
Range(km):5
EHANG 184
This is the main show stopper of Ehang,with capabilities of transporting human passengers over distances this is a major breakthrough in UAV technology.The drone's automatic navigation negates the requirement for the passenger to have a pilot license.Thus the customer can sit back,relax and enjoy the whole journey.Standing 1.5 mtrs tall and weighing 200 kgs,the Ehang184 has a load capacity of 100 kgs.

INDIA: It has been reported that HAL (Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd.) is all set to enter into a contract with an Israeli company that has a specialization in the field of making autonomous weaponry. These Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles(UAV) will be manufactured in India under the Make in India campaign which has seen increased popularity amidst the tensions along the LAC with China. India has taken this decision seeing the possibility of a two-front war with China as well as Pakistan. The Heron designed by the Israeli Aerospace Industries is one of a kind of UAV that has an automated takeoff and landing ability in harsh weather conditions. The heron could reach a high altitude of 30000 ft and helps the user in accessing real-time information on the battlefield and that too with the unique capability of surveillance of large areas in a short span of time. ...
