Fiber optic drone

A fiber optic drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), usually a first-person view (FPV) loitering munition, which uses an optical fiber as its primary guidance and teleoperation link. These drones usually have fiber optic cables between 5 and 20 km (3.1 and 12.4 mi) long, although prototypes with up to 50 km (31 mi) range have been developed. Fiber optic drones are impossible to jam and very difficult to detect, as they have no thermal or radio signature, and are small. They are relatively inexpensive to produce and are constructed from lightweight materials.
