MQ-8 Fire Scout
This unmanned vertical landing and take-off helicopter is a near-perfect weapon for the US Air Force and Navy.
It's extremely stable and can land on a ship while braving wind speeds of upto 45 km/h.
It can be operated from distances of over 270 km and can fly at an altitude of 20,000 feet while carrying a 1,400-kilo load that is slated to include missiles, smart bombs, and other weapons.
While the Americans are still tweaking and developing this unmanned monster, it is slated to become one of the most potent weapons in their arsenal.
