Interesting, though apparently they've been around for a while. Thoughts on the future of this tech?

Uvision loitering munition

 

UVision’s HERO Family is an all-inclusive loitering munition solution designed to meet the complex requirements of the modern battlefield.

HERO incorporates a wide range of advanced, cost-effective technologies to enable high-precision terminal engagement with minimal collateral damage.

A loitering munition (also known as a suicide drone or kamikaze drone) is a weapon system category in which the munition loiters around the target area for some time, searches for targets, and attacks once a target is located. Loitering munitions enable faster reaction times against concealed or hidden targets that emerge for short periods without placing high-value platforms close to the target area, and also allow more selective targeting as the actual attack mission can be aborted.
