The Aero Armouries AQm.103 is a lower cost alternative to the FM.103 or AVM.103, whilst being Multipurpose, Single-Use unmanned vehicle. Equipped with an Improved Aero Systems JN.002-B Turbo-Pulsejet engine, it's capable of reaching speeds in excess of 540 kph, with a high loiter time and accuracy of 97%. The Hornet was designed with a reinforced shell that can withstand direct impacts into the ground as it's not only capable of Search and Destroy missions, but is capable of carrying out reconnaissance, or even light cargo deployment. Being single use and designed with cost effectiveness in mind, the Hornet forgoes standard gear, instead making full use of the Aero Systems Manta Multipurpose Munitions cart as a takeoff dolley. originally used to ferry munitions to aircraft, it was later modified to serve as a take off dolley for drones without landing gear.
