Technical Overview
The KSHATRA M165 VTOL is a large-scale hybrid-electric UAV: an IC engine drives efficient forward flight while eight coaxial lift motors handle vertical take-off and landing. The airframe is sized for 100 small ISO-standard packages and tuned to minimize fuel consumption for cost-effective operating rates, making it well suited to defense logistics, industrial cargo and humanitarian-aid missions.
