Is the XRQ-73 the ultimate silent killer?The Unseen Predator
Imagine a drone so advanced it can slip past the most sophisticated defenses, a silent hunter in the sky. The XRQ-73, DARPA's latest X-plane, is not just a UAV; it's a harbinger of a new era in warfare.
The XRQ-73, a groundbreaking new drone from DARPA, could revolutionize the way wars are fought. With its advanced stealth technology and hybrid-electric propulsion, this unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is capable of performing a wide range of missions, from precision strikes to reconnaissance.
A Technological Marvel
Combining the best of electric and traditional propulsion, the XRQ-73 is a marvel of engineering. Its stealthy design and advanced capabilities make it a formidable asset for military operations. From precision strikes to intelligence gathering, its potential applications are vast.
Beyond the Battlefield
But the XRQ-73's impact extends beyond the battlefield. Its technology could revolutionize civilian sectors, aiding in disaster relief, search and rescue, and environmental monitoring.
The Future of Warfare
The XRQ-73 is a testament to human ingenuity and a glimpse into the future of warfare. As technology continues to evolve, we can expect to see even more groundbreaking advancements in unmanned aerial vehicles.
But what truly sets it apart?
Its ability to remain undetected, combined with its long-range capabilities and versatility, makes the XRQ-73 a formidable weapon. As technology advances, we can only imagine the possibilities that this and other similar drones hold for the future of warfare.
Are you ready for a world where drones rule the skies?
UAV
UAVsAeroVironment, Inc. is an American defense contractor headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, that is primarily involved in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) (Wikipedia)
I have been eyeing the military industry for some time, but the stocks have never reached the price I would take. Anyway, AeroVironment looks among the best in the sector from both technical and fundamental perspectives.
The technicals:
There is a double top pattern that developed itself into a triangle. The bottom is specified by two significant lows exceeding a round number 100.0 to the downside. The most significant gap is in the location too.
I expect a lot of liquidity below the yellow rectangle. If we ever reach there without an overall market crash, I'll create the entry there. It's probably the last line of DEFENSE against the bear market. Remember, that the big players need that extra liquidity to open a significant position.
The fundamentals:
The drones were used in recent conflicts against both a professional army and militia/guerrilla force with great success. Even though, the army makes it clear that UAVs are not a replacement for any part of the military, the spendings on both the research and the development increases over time (Statista).
However, the coronavirus might cause some material issues, and increases in spending might be halted (Ibisworld), it is a kind of technology the US will not want to fall behind in. Well, it has already started to fall behind as Turkey develops the first 'dronecraft carrier'. I think the cuts are rather to hit other parts of the defense sector.
I like AeroVironment specifically because, with its focus on UAVs, it is likely to fight for the contracts in this category most hard and the price is as a result derived mostly from this growing part of the sector.
The crash:
The question is if there is enough time for the buying opportunity to develop & profit from before the markets crash. I will be looking for an opportunity between 95-100$, but might not decide to invest at all in the end.
