The VY-48A "Avenger" is a stealth, tailless jet-powered blended-wing-body UCAV (Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle) with integrated fuselage, capable of operating on aircraft carriers and performing combat missions. It’s an aircraft capable of semi-autonomous operation and aerial refueling. The "Avenger" is equipped with the latest dronic technologies in the world, which make it capable of operating in any condition, and of completing a range of different operations: from aerial surveillance, to bombing missions, from patrol and escort missions and operate as a real jet fighter in attack or defense missions. The “Avenger” is able to reach supersonic speed (1.1 Mach), thanks to its two powerful jet engines, and to carry a payload of 4500 kg. Its development is a consequence of the government's decision to promote a modernization of the national army, especially after the launch of the first aircraft carrier in the history of the navy, the LNC-01 "Gold Lion". This model was inspired by the American UCAV X47B.
