According to NextGen Defense and Yonhap News, Quantum Systems Group's experimental unmanned aircraft Apex Recordhunter achieved a record-breaking horizontal level flight speed of 699 kilometers per hour (434 mph) on July 9. Developed over more than a year, the drone serves as a test platform for advanced propulsion, aerodynamic, and flight control technologies that will be integrated into future high-speed interceptor drones and other unmanned platforms. The development aligns with increased demand for high-speed interceptor drones on the Ukraine battlefield to counter Russian Shahed reconnaissance and kamikaze drones.
