 "An unmanned
combat aerial vehicle (UCAV),
also known as a combat
drone, fighter
drone or battlefield
UAV,
is an unmanned
aerial vehicle (UAV)
that is used for intelligence,
surveillance, target acquisition, and
reconnaissance and
carries aircraft
ordnance such
as missiles, anti-tank
guided missiles (ATGMs), and/or bombs in hardpoints for drone
strikes
These drones are usually under real-time
human control, with varying levels of
autonomy. UCAVs
are used for reconnaissance, attacking
targets and returning to base; unlike kamikaze
drones which
are only made to explode on impact, or surveillance
drones which
are only for gathering intelligence. Source
