The Snipe™ Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is a reliable entry-level target platform for Threat Representation simulations and military operational training.

Snipe

 

Produced initially as a simple model aircraft target, the Snipe has been modified over the years, introducing enhanced components and additional capabilities. 

Now manufactured with QinetiQ’s mini CASPA Avionics unit onboard, the Snipe has autonomous flight capability to over 40km and enhanced stabilisation. Launched by hand or via a lightweight catapult launcher, this target is in service in several countries and is successful in various climates. With the recovery in parachute ejection or a skid landing, this UAV is perfectly positioned in the market for use as a direct-hit target.
