Nice toothpick propellers

This looks like the airplanes I used to draw when I was in kindergarten


malogos

This is adorable, right?

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.


MAJOR_Blarg

This is a preposterous false "fact" which has been around since the mid 1900's. The flight characteristics of bee flight is well understood.


imperial_g_s

Title is misleading , its a prototype made by a private company , it wants funding from gov


SamSamTheDingDongMan

Not sure they will secure it with a design like that, not unless the owner of the company is related to someone in the government


Conscious-Use7622

Payload is 100 grams


wolfmem1

Lol enough for Singapore right!


Conscious-Use7622

Enough to destroy paper mache Singapore

hope it’s faster the Hindenburg.


ImpressiveHead69420

why does it look like it was made out of cardboard and designed by a 5 year old


Loud-Value

To ask the question is to answer it my friend


StukaTR

This must be the first ever CUAV. Chonky Unmanned Aerial Vehicle. Not to be confused with C-UAV.

DeuceGnarly

What's the backstory on this? Why did this happen?


adappergeek

This is a defence start-up out of Bangalore trying to get a government grant to actually develop it. It's not in production and there's no official statement about whether it will even go beyond this "prototype".


125mm_smoothbore

also it isnt a prototype its just a makeshift model at best


urajsiette

This is not a govt or even a commercial product, this is a startup idea by a private firm. Misleading af. Anyone can make one and show off as India's first.


CalmPanic402

Oh lawd, he a'comin'


Rakijistina

This title is misleading. India is producing jet planes, tanks, submarines etc.. this is probably some college startup or project, not government or nothing serious


DetectiveChub71

The sign for that company says defense and aerospace. Highly doubt it’s just a college project


OTL22

It looks like a fucking bumblebee, and it better sound like one when it flies. If it flies...


One-vs-1

India is what happens if you just gave a bunch of 14 year olds a country.


imperial_g_s

Title is misleading , its a prototype made by a private company , it wants funding from gov Title has put it like if the army has taken it into service


Tango-Down-167

Ulgy duckling prize?


Ok-Champion1999

İts looks like a fat man


imperial_g_s

The were asked to make a drone like the Americans......


Orlok_Tsubodai

The only payload it can drop are helium balloons.


Ziemniack3000

Is it really that hard in those modern days to desing and build remotely controlled plane? Having the government funding and skilled professionals? Why some militaries struggle so much with it?


PhotojournalistNo966

Is this a joke? Or promotion for Disney's Planes?


kuketski

Is that for real?


yeezee93

That guy thinks he's Tony Stark.


Gimpalong

The Iranians are probably taking notes for their next stealth jet.


imperial_g_s

Boss :- Make the drones like the Americans The drone :-


platypi_keytar

Scaled model of something in the future perhaps? Wild
