Germany Developing Long-Range Deep-Strike Combat Drones
Imagine the German army is building some super cool, long-distance toy airplanes called drones.
These aren't just any drones; they're made to fly far away and zap targets, kind of like in a video game but in real life.
The air force, or Luftwaffe, asked some smart companies to come up with ideas for these drones.
Now, three different groups are busy designing them.
The plan is to make these drones really powerful so they can hit targets way inside enemy territory.
It's like giving the army a new, long-range tool.
German armed forces are developing long-range combat drones.
The Luftwaffe airforce issued a request for deep-strike drones.
Three consortia are working on drone concepts.
The drones are intended to strike targets deep in enemy territory.
The information was reported by Handelsblatt newspaper.
