switchblade 300 (cd70cac7-e795-48ed-84cf-83fc688e368e)
The Switchblade 300 Block 20 is a lightweight, electric‑powered loitering munition designed for rapid, precision strikes by dismounted or small‑unit operators. Weighing ≈ 1.68 kg (munition) and carried in a backpack‑compatible launcher, it provides up to 20 minutes of endurance and a 30 km line‑of‑sight range (extended with an antenna). During loiter it cruises at ≈ 101 km/h and can sprint to ≈ 161 km/h for terminal attacks. Its modular payload bay accommodates either a fragmentation warhead for anti‑personnel effects or an explosively‑formed penetrator (EFP) capable of defeating light‑to‑medium armor. The system delivers real‑time EO/IR video, GPS‑linked targeting and a “wave‑off‑re‑commit” capability, enabling single‑operator, beyond‑line‑of‑sight engagements with low collateral damage. It is fielded by the United States and supplied to Ukraine under the LM, Class I: small taxonomy.
