Pouncer is a civilian American unmanned aerial vehicle developed by Facebook.

Unmanned aerial vehicle Pouncer belongs to the class of civilian drones, while the aircraft is not at all multifunctional in terms of its use, its development is quite promising. Among the tasks performed by the unmanned aerial vehicle Pouncer, it is necessary mainly to transport cargo, in particular, this device is intended for the delivery of small loads, food and medicine at distances up to 40 kilometers, but, if necessary, the aircraft can also be used for various types observation missions.

When developing the unmanned aircraft Pouncer, aircraft builders from the company "Facebook" used the available natural materials, in particular, it is about wood, which even makes the design of the drone very heavy, provides UAV low and affordable.

This airframe is made in an airplane-type configuration, however, the device has very large overall dimensions, which reduces the maneuverability qualities, and to some extent complicates the operation and transportation process. The own chassis system for this UAV is not available, so a special ejection device is used to start the drone.

The power section of the Pouncer UAV is represented by one engine, which allows the aircraft to accelerate to the maximum speed of flight at 120 km / h, with the maximum range of missions in 40 kilometers.
