Previously, the Warble Fly was also presented at WDS 2024, where it was integrated into the Milanion Group's Agema Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV). This integration underscores the versatility of the Warble Fly, capable of being launched from both terrestrial and maritime platforms and designed to support a variety of mission profiles, including precision strike missions. The design of the Warble Fly allows it to operate effectively at altitudes ranging from 120 to 250 meters above ground level, with a service ceiling up to 2000 meters above mean sea level. The Agema UGV itself is a robust platform that enhances the operational capabilities of the Warble Fly by providing a mobile launch platform that can navigate various terrains and environments.

The system can also be launched from a self-contained tube, facilitating rapid deployment in the field. With its compact dimensions and moderate weight, it allows for increased maneuverability and discretion. The munition has an effective range that can exceed 25 km with an extended range antenna and can maintain a flight endurance of over 25 minutes.

The Warble Fly can reach a cruise speed of 90 km/h, with the capability to accelerate up to 150 km/h during attacks, operating efficiently at an operational altitude of less than 500 meters. Its fire control system is based on an intuitive tablet, equipped with a mission planner and a touch-to-target feature.

One key feature of this munition is its payload flexibility. It can be equipped with various types of military heads to meet specific needs: highly explosive fragmentation, anti-tank, thermobaric, and inert versions for training. This allows the Warble Fly to adapt to various operational scenarios.

The Warble Fly also integrates advanced vision-guided technology, enabling precision strikes guided by interchangeable EO/IR optics. Operators can cancel an attack at any time, thus having complete control over the operation and reducing the risk of collateral damage. Recovery is ensured by a parachute, allowing for the safe recovery of the munition if necessary.
