A US military drone has TowHawk miniature compact design having a length in centimeters 68 and 86 wingspan equal to centimeters, making it easy to transport while the drone, as well as a very good aerodynamic properties of UAVs, including agility, manageability and OE Net weight UAV is 680 grams, which does not allow the device to operate at wind speeds of more than 10 m \ s.

Drone TowHawk model has integrated electro-infrared camera and, thus, if necessary, an infrared camera can be replaced by a thermal camera, which provides the ability to search objects with temperature different from ambient temperature.

The power part of the air is represented by means of a brushless electric motor, which is having a small capacity, can disperse the drone to a maximum airspeed in 65 km \ h., And the effective range of the UAV following 10 kilometers.
