Dont get me wrong because i posted several comments stating that this drone is Turkish (made for the RAF). I like "Cakal (Jackal)" a lot and i like the new and improved relations between the UK and Türkiye. We are in an era that even Japan wants some part of the Türkish drone tech. But yeah about now Türkiye has sold to around 25 countries his drones and many are still waiting. Building Skynet here (and to be honest im pretty proud of it too!).
This drone isn’t even going into service for the RAF. It’s just a prototype experimental platform, they’ll use research from this to develop something more practical that doesn’t use a drone that needs a power plug And if that is a Turkish drone then it’s quite garbage since it needs to be attached to a power supply 😂 Not exactly something to brag about.
Very smart. We should have several programs working on small drone munitions. Northrop is working on a minature strike munition called the "Hatchet." Antidrone weapons and drone munitions should be high on the priority list.

Does anyone know how this drone navigates autonomously? I'm guessing vision-based navigation. If so, does anyone know what specific type? Or does this drone use SLAM (Simultaneous Localization And Mapping)? Or a combination of the two? SAR (as opposed to using EO/IIR sensors) could presumably provide all-weather vision-based navigation I'd have thought. Has such a thing been developed yet? BAE DIGAR is supposedly jam-immune according to the BAE website. Not only can it thwart GPS jamming and spoofing, it can also geolocate GPS jammers, and it comes in a variant that's small enough to fit to drones. As for hitting targets, does the Jackal have automatic target recognition capability that uses a target database? Can it track and hit moving targets? Does it have a GMTI (Ground Moving Target Indicator)? Can this drone be remotely controlled with a man in the loop if required? If so, ideally the drone would have highly jam-resistant MADL-type capability and/or jam-immune laser comms to control the drone using communications satellites (weather permitting). Or else the Jackal could be fitted with a fibre-optic cable to provide jam-immune control for up to 20 or 40km (like the German Highcat HCX drone). Fitting the Jackal with an anti-radiation seeker would enable it to detect SAM radars and SHORAD vehicles. Fitting it with a home-on-jam (HOJ) seeker would enable it to detect jammers. Combining Jackals equipped with such seekers with the Ukrainian Gekata drone would be a formidable combination I'd have thought, providing that the Jackals and Gekatas have a means of communicating that can't be jammed or is highly jam-resistant. Fitting the Jackal with Starstreak would make it deadly against attack helicopters. (I know LMM has air-to-air capability, but Starstreak is much faster.) Fitting the Jackal with an automatic shotgun like the AA-12, the automated variant of Smartshooter SMASH, Sandia laser-guided bullets or DARPA EXACTO bullets would turn it into an anti-drone drone (much cheaper than using LMM, Starstreak or APKWS against enemy drones with no means of firing back). Another option would be the Epirus Leonidas microwave pod to burn out the electronics in enemy drones. The NAVAIR Spike missile (2.4kg) would make sense when using an LMM missile (13kg) would be overkill and too expensive, and the Northrop Grumman Hatchet munition (2.9kg) would be another option worth looking at. Despite what the NG webpage for Hatchet says, it has various guidance methods, not just GPS. The data sheet also lists INS and SAL, as well as future options of EO/IR, ATR and a datalink. The Jackal drone has a LOT of potential and could be modified in many different ways in terms of autonomous navigation, autonomous target acquisition, datalink capability, sensors and weapons. Large numbers of Jackals could take out all sorts of targets such as tanks, other armoured vehicles, unarmoured military vehicles, gun artillery (towed artillery, self-propelled howitzers), rocket artillery (MLRS), SHORAD vehicles, SAM systems (if they're within range), jamming equipment, logistics trains and trucks, attack helicopters (either in the air or on the ground), Shahed drones, recon drones, OWA drones, FPV drones, and possibly cruise missiles. That is a LOT of capability for relatively cheap drones that could be built quickly in large numbers. Jackals are obviously more expensive than the cheapest drones being used in Ukraine, but these cheap drones are being taken out in large numbers by Russian EW, plus I've read that it can take 10 hits (give or take) on an armoured vehicle to put it out of operation, whereas LMM is going to be much more likely to be a case of one shot/one kill. LMM missiles may not be able to destroy tanks (at least not from the front), but they'd make a mess of a tank's viewports and sensors. And if a tank was hit from the sides or rear, an LMM could probably mission-kill it at the very least, possibly actually destroy it. Plus Jackals, unlike the cheapest Ukrainian drones, are reusable. I'd say it would make far more sense to compare Jackal drones with Apache attack helicopters than low-end single-use drones. Although obviously Jackals are FAR FAR cheaper than Apaches. I'd also say that Jackals are (a) potentially much more versatile than Apaches in terms of how many targets they could take out, (b) much cheaper and therefore attritable, (c) can be built quickly in huge numbers, and (d) can be replaced quickly if lost in a war.
After shooting that rocket, the Jackal drone sure had a lot of yaw reaction! They cut out the full extent of the yaw in this video...perhaps to hide this undesirable flight reaction. Does anybody know of a full uncut video to see how much the drone actually rotated as a result of the missile firing?
Wasn't it more roll than yaw? Plus the LMM is a missile, not a rocket. But anyway, whatever, I totally agree that the video cutting off like that isn't good. I'd like to see an uncut video too.
Proud to say it is Turkish, the Drone is Turkish but I think they have something like a joint venture and the missile system is made in GB and the vertical take off system could be from GB too. The Jackel as Drone is 100% made in Turkiye.
@@JimCarner Oh man, everybody in Turkiye knows that, came so often in the news in 2017 it was if I am not wrong but if you dont believe search for: " fly bvlos technology " thats the name of the Turkish company which has invented the drone. Visit their homepage and read first: About us, there you can see from where/which country they are and then click: Our UAVs and you see the Jackal..
wonder what the cost is, I guessing a lot less than a camcopter as they've already done two lmm on one of those, now can you stuff a pair of brimstones on that?
Much like the A10 jet, built around a huge gun it would make more sense to do the same with chosen weapons on combat drones, instead of, no matter how well, just strapping them on... Then in extremis, the drone should be a final weapon itself or at extreme range, some kind of ground sensor, or beacon, until it can be collected...
Missiles don’t kick at all….you would have to launch them out of a sealed tube to get that. You can see its exhaust out the back, no different than launching off a wing.
@David Gill so why when I hear from pilots they say they feel the missile kick from apaches ect.Laws of physics surly there is some acceleration from the missile?
@@MyScotty7 There is acceleration from the missile, but it isn’t being shot out a barrel like a bullet from a gun. If the missile is just firing the opposite reaction is the blast going the other direction. I’ve never heard pilots talk about the kick, maybe they are catching some of the exhaust from the rocket motor? You can see the drone in this video do a little hula as well as gets disrupted by the exhaust and probably automated stabilization as it adjusts for losing the missiles weight. A gun has recoil because the bullet is propelled out of the closed breech by the expanding gases of the powder burn so as the bullet is pushed out of the barrel equal force is pushing back into the gun. That,s why you don’t stand behind bazookas and recoilless rifles. The javelin anti tank too, it uses that little bump to boost the missile clear of the launcher so it doesn’t blast the operator.
I’m sure drones/ robots will play an ever growing role in war so it’s good to push innovation. I noticed we never heard how loud it is. I’m sure this is very loud to lift that weight and maintain it’a hovering position as it fires. Hopefully they can create a system where the weight isn’t so high, the sound is reduced, and it uses easy to reload missiles, these looked like fire and forget.
@@flybytechnology6261 it’s developed for British military so it makes sense that it uses British ammo. I just think they should have mentioned that It’s made in Gebze Drone Park. It would add 5 seconds to the video length. (Sorry if it’s mentioned and I missed it)

@@squaddie67 because the RAF are just civis in uniform and this would be better in the hands of soldiers that would need the support. The RAF has never been able to get too or from an operation all area or exercise on time in the last 26 1/2 years.
@@colp9492 The RAF already has trained personnel able to operate quadcopter drones and reconnaissance drones, thus already having the staff already qualified / needing less training to operate it. It would be too expensive for the MoD to train an entire new unit just to do the same things others are qualified to do.
I might be missing something, but why this over the Schiebel Camcopter S-100? The Schiebel already exists, is already operated by multiple people (and is being introduced to the navy) and already fires the Martlet. They seem to be in the same class and have similar specs (generally leaning slightly in the favour of the Schiebel as far as I can see).
Quadcopters generally have greater maneuverability and can fly in more confined spaces with a greater stability, helicopters needs a prop on the tail to counter the momentum of the main blades, quadcopters rely on 4 all spinning at the some speed canceling that force out offering more compact, simple and stable designs. The navy's implementation is likely for surveillance methods with a generally greater flight time than quad copters, there's currently a demand for submarine countering equipment which is exactly what the navy is looking to do, this type of drone with a reduced range is likely going to see action on ground based combat in situations where the ability to get in and out quickly is a priority, quads can do that much better than helis.
This drone is missing its wing extensions in the video and has four fan turbine motors for forwards flight (I can't tell if they're electric fans or jet turbine). So unlike the S100 this will possibly have longer range and endurance plus the ability to loiter, hover and take off/land vertically. Could very well be cheaper too!
@@ricardo1950 And replaced by the MQ-8C fire scout. Fire Scout was not retired. Just replaced with a more modern variant 40 MQ-8C fire scouts are currently in service with the US Navy
Imagine if you could get a TOW missile system on it or two. Then you could have a lunch system for this drone on the back of a striker or other IFV. Let the dismounts control the drone to look for targets or problems a head with the IRS system on the drone.
We're sort of already there. There's the Schiebel S-100 that appears to do all the things this does, fires the same missiles, has been in service with multiple militaries for a while and is being integrated to the RN. Unless of course the Jackal is the cheap option, vs and expensive Schiebel. That bit I don't know.
Why are we divulging (bragging about) our military capabilities, only to see (just a few years late) that very same technology, duplicated or surpassed by our enemy's, we need to stop this asininity immediately!
for someone in the business this guy does not know that the Northrop Grumman MQ-8 Fire Scout has been firing advanced precision kill munitions from since the mid 2000s so saying this is the first is a complete lie and miss-information
I've been saying for a while now that Ukraine could do with the retired A and B variants of the Fire Scout. They'd make good use of them I'm sure. That said, the Fire Scout doesn't exist in large numbers. The Jackal has the potential to be manufactured in huge numbers, and quickly too. Well, assuming the political will is there to build them. Also, being electrically powered, I assume the Jackal has a smaller IR signature and acoustic signature than the Fire Scout, thus making it harder to detect and shoot down.
Türkiye is becoming Skynet… multiple drones for, land and sea. I doubtfully like the Turkish naval drones more than the drones on land and air. I also like the new and (so it seems) improved relations between Türkiye and the UK.
If it hovers surely it can be taken out by a shoulder launched infantry borne weapon? Don’t see the point really except that you don’t use fixed with aircraft or helicopters which are more expensive etc

The Schiebel already exists, is already operated by multiple people (and is being introduced to the navy) and already fires the Martlet. They seem to be in the same class and have similar specs (generally leaning slightly in the favour of the Schiebel as far as I can see).
Quadcopters generally have greater maneuverability and can fly in more confined spaces with a greater stability, helicopters needs a prop on the tail to counter the momentum of the main blades, quadcopters rely on 4 all spinning at the some speed canceling that force out offering more compact, simple and stable designs.
The navy's implementation is likely for surveillance methods with a generally greater flight time than quad copters, there's currently a demand for submarine countering equipment which is exactly what the navy is looking to do, this type of drone with a reduced range is likely going to see action on ground based combat in situations where the ability to get in and out quickly is a priority, quads can do that much better than helis.
This drone is missing its wing extensions in the video and has four fan turbine motors for forwards flight (I can't tell if they're electric fans or jet turbine).
So unlike the S100 this will possibly have longer range and endurance plus the ability to loiter, hover and take off/land vertically. Could very well be cheaper too!
Schiebel has not fired LMM Martlet in flight.
What about the US Fire Scout
Retired 2022
@@ricardo1950 And replaced by the MQ-8C fire scout. Fire Scout was not retired. Just replaced with a more modern variant
40 MQ-8C fire scouts are currently in service with the US Navy
@@tylerclayton6081 I saw that the US navy started using unmanned drone speed boats
Imagine if you could get a TOW missile system on it or two. Then you could have a lunch system for this drone on the back of a striker or other IFV. Let the dismounts control the drone to look for targets or problems a head with the IRS system on the drone.
A TOW wouldn't work sadly, not stable enough.
a laser designation would help.
What are the bets this will never enter service but a more expensive version will *eventually* enter service after decades when it is obsolete?
We're sort of already there. There's the Schiebel S-100 that appears to do all the things this does, fires the same missiles, has been in service with multiple militaries for a while and is being integrated to the RN.
Unless of course the Jackal is the cheap option, vs and expensive Schiebel. That bit I don't know.
@@tomcardale5596 the schiebel S-100 are 9 million each i think these are going for the 5 or 6 figure price point
@@P.G.Wodelouse ah, that makes a big difference!
The large connecting cable might be somewhat of an impediment, tactically speaking.
Putting only own cheap missiles into an Made in Turkey Drone doesnt make The Drone British 😂
Why are we divulging (bragging about) our military capabilities, only to see (just a few years late) that very same technology, duplicated or surpassed by our enemy's, we need to stop this asininity immediately!
Oh that is soo cool.
I just hope it's cheap, if there's one thing we've re-learned from Ukraine is things need to be effective, but also cheap and fast to build.
Wait for AI to be intergrated and it goes fully autonomous
Its Turkish made, so it can be autonomous and AI controlled
I want to see where this is really going , drones over the UK , can be used in uprising against its own people
for someone in the business this guy does not know that the Northrop Grumman MQ-8 Fire Scout has been firing advanced precision kill munitions from since the mid 2000s so saying this is the first is a complete lie and miss-information
I've been saying for a while now that Ukraine could do with the retired A and B variants of the Fire Scout. They'd make good use of them I'm sure.
That said, the Fire Scout doesn't exist in large numbers. The Jackal has the potential to be manufactured in huge numbers, and quickly too. Well, assuming the political will is there to build them.
Also, being electrically powered, I assume the Jackal has a smaller IR signature and acoustic signature than the Fire Scout, thus making it harder to detect and shoot down.
Do they have to make all these drones look like Terminator prototypes? It's like they are trying to will Skynet into existence lol
Türkiye is becoming Skynet… multiple drones for, land and sea. I doubtfully like the Turkish naval drones more than the drones on land and air. I also like the new and (so it seems) improved relations between Türkiye and the UK.
When I said I wanted to live in a future as depicted in sci-fi, I meant Star Trek, not The Terminator.. 🤦♂
If it hovers surely it can be taken out by a shoulder launched infantry borne weapon? Don’t see the point really except that you don’t use fixed with aircraft or helicopters which are more expensive etc
So you do see the point then!
I see a rope attached, hope it's not like the Wonderful super carrier!
OHHHHHHH SHINEY!
now thats impression a drone and fires missles at mach4 LOL. i hope the trials go well and the RAF and RN purchase them.
@@JimCarneroh ok thanks for letting me know.
It looks cool.
Hmmm....sure it doesn't report to SKYNET?
its originaly turkish product btw
skynet cool!
Think that first guy in the video was an x RAF buccaneer poilet
Nice
Who remembers Terminator?
Swarms of Combat Drones and Robots Dominate Future Warfare.
Bad ass Turkish Drone❤
They are so sure about the control systems, they actually chained it down. No flyaway from that drone, how embarrassing
It was a safety requirement for any first flight with live missiles. Not required. Or the Command Safety Lanyard.
