SKYDAGGER Tests LIDAR Fuse on TOYCA-05 Kamikaze UAV

SKYDAGGER Tests LIDAR Fuse on TOYCA-05 Kamikaze UAV TurDef

The new test video for TOYCA-05 kamikaze UAV shows guidance and warhead demonstrations. SKYDAGGER’s fixed-wing kamikaze UAV with a five-kilogram HE-FRAG warhead demonstrated its LIDAR proximity fuse against a vehicle in the test.

The test video also shows target tracking and autonomous dive at a 45-degree angle.

An interesting detail from the test is the way that the warhead is mounted. Instead of using a specific fitting, TOYCA-05 has a cargo bay-like housing for the warhead to allow modularity, which can allow for alternative payloads.

SKYDAGGER unveiled TOYCA-05 as a long-range option in its kamikaze UAV portfolio towards the end of 2025. The kamikaze UAV, adopting a flying tailless delta wing configuration, is fitted with TV and IR cameras for operation in both day and night conditions.

TOYCA-05 can reach a range of 70 km and operate in swarms with mesh communication. Depending on the need, FPV and autonomous modes are available for control.
