The US military, the first video of the drone, released a fighter that was tested two and a half years ago and was said to make a significant shift in the military field thanks to its low capacity and cost.

According to press reports, the Dron "XQ-58A Valkyrie", managed this week to complete its first flight, as expected.

The flight took a full 76-minute flight on March 5 in Arizona, and the video showed 15 seconds of flight.

The US military does not often publish videos of the Al-Daron aircraft it is developing, in order to preserve sensitive military secrets.
The aircraft was developed for the Air Force Research Laboratory as part of a program designed to design high-speed and low-cost Dron aircraft at the same time.

Doug Scleslovsky, the program's director in charge of the aircraft in the US laboratory, said the discovered "Dron" was the first model in a category of unmanned drones at the right cost.

The official did not mention the cost of the plane, but some experts said the price would be between $ 2 million and $ 3 million per dron.
