Formula 1–engineered kamikaze drone strikes targets 155 miles away

Demonstrated at Enstone Airfield in Oxfordshire, SkyShark can reach speeds exceeding 280 mph (450 kph), strike targets up to 155 miles (250 kilometers) away, and carry a 44-pound (20-kilogram) warhead. It features terrain contour matching (TERCOM) navigation, enabling operations in GPS-denied or jammed environments. The drone comes in two variants: one powered by a gas turbine engine developed by UK-based Argive Ltd for high-thrust tactical missions, and another using an electric ducted fan engine from Greenjets designed for stealthy, low-signature operations. Both versions emphasize British innovation and sovereignty, with all design, manufacturing, and testing conducted domestically to avoid reliance on foreign suppliers. The gas turbine variant offers high performance suited for
