Evidence & current status

Status and performance are attributed to the supplier. They do not establish an independently audited fleet size or effectiveness rate.

Role & programme

A Ukrainian long-range one-way aircraft marketed by Terminal Autonomy as the AQ 400 Scythe.

The manufacturer describes production and operational use, but those claims do not provide an independently audited fleet or delivery total. Its advertised distance is not a datalink radius. Public technical disclosure is limited, so the catalogue does not fill missing endurance, speed or mass with unattributed media estimates. Other AQ-numbered aircraft require separate specifications.

Sourced specifications

Figures apply to the named configuration. Maximum values are not guaranteed operating performance.
