Depending on the target located at a 10km maximum distance, the warhead fitted on the Dragonfly drone can be of fragmentation or thermobaric type, but also an inert type for training. The UAV can be equipped with daytime or infrared camera. For safety, the Dragonfly is equipped with a 3-step system enabling remote arming and disarming of the warhead (the safety pin having been removed before takeoff)

After localizing and selecting a target, and then actuating the video-tracking mode, the ‘’suicide mission’’ can be carried on, even if the communication is lost.
