New Gamera Drone: The MQ-9 Reaper Rival That Could Carry Hypersonic Missiles – The U.S. may be looking for a cheaper alternative to the MQ-9 Reaper, and Swarm Aero's new Gamera drone is designed to carry weapons far larger than the Reaper typically uses. As a Group 5 UAS, Gamera is claimed to offer a 9,000-nautical-mile unrefueled range, more than 2,800 pounds of payload capacity, and the ability to carry weapons such as LRASM, JASSM-ER, and even hypersonic missiles. But Gamera is still a proposed aircraft, with its first flight targeted for 2027. Could this low-cost, long-range drone change the future of U.S. strike operations? Watch the full video to find out!
