At the Modern Day Marine event in Washington, DC, Northrop Grumman revealed the “Lumberjack,” a versatile, one-way loitering drone designed for multi-role battlefield use. Jet-powered and modular, it can be launched from various platforms and guided autonomously or by operators through a real-time data link. The system is adaptable for missions ranging from surveillance and electronic warfare to precision strikes using small submunitions like the company’s six-pound payload.
