AUAV-8Y meaning: Attack Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (serie) 8, type Y (due to the main wing form)
History:
The AUAV Series were imagined to hit targets from distance and from low altitude to reduce detection risk as well as pilot loss because of this same low altitude accident risk.
The serie 8 was designed to perform quick attack on one target or more if payload modifed and with a better manoevrability to be able to avoid GAMs without difficulties.
With that, it got the ability to attaque from low altitude as welle as medium altitudes with a speed near the sound's speed.
