The QX-5 is designed to perform intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions as well as perform border security missions, among other military operations. It is a fixed-wing aircraft that the company says has a 16-hour endurance with a 25-kilogram payload capacity. It also features autopilot and communications systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1536\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257213846_633465187785920_1050704521686235662_n.jpg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-58840\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257213846_633465187785920_1050704521686235662_n.jpg.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257213846_633465187785920_1050704521686235662_n.jpg.jpg?resize=300,225 300w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257213846_633465187785920_1050704521686235662_n.jpg.jpg?resize=768,576 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257213846_633465187785920_1050704521686235662_n.jpg.jpg?resize=1024,768 1024w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257213846_633465187785920_1050704521686235662_n.jpg.jpg?resize=1536,1152 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The QX-5, an upgraded version of the QX-4 kamikaze drone, is a fixed-wing system with a 16-hour endurance.

It is guided using set coordinates or a camera to attack its target. It has an extended payload of 150 kilograms to enable it to deliver cargo to remote locations. Depending on its payload configuration, the system has an endurance of up to 4 hours and can be leveraged for both military and commercial applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What about the munition system?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adasi\u2019s Rash 2-H is touted as a cost-effective, highly precise guided munition system capable of swiftly engaging small to medium-sized threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1536\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257333334_1495037507538141_2652713236205794220_n.jpg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-58845\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257333334_1495037507538141_2652713236205794220_n.jpg.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257333334_1495037507538141_2652713236205794220_n.jpg.jpg?resize=300,225 300w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257333334_1495037507538141_2652713236205794220_n.jpg.jpg?resize=768,576 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257333334_1495037507538141_2652713236205794220_n.jpg.jpg?resize=1024,768 1024w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/257333334_1495037507538141_2652713236205794220_n.jpg.jpg?resize=1536,1152 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Rash 2-H precision-guided munition system was unveiled at the 20210 Dubai Airshow.
