Royal Navy Conducts First Sea Launch of Combat-Proven Nyan Loitering Munition, Pointing to a 'Hybrid' Fleet Future
The Royal Navy has successfully launched the Nyan one-way attack drone from the trials vessel XV Patrick Blackett off England's southern coast during Exercise Neptune Reach. Developed by BAE Systems subsidiary Callen-Lenz, the Nyan costs under £100,000 per unit, spans 2.9 metres, and has a range exceeding 150 km. With over 1,000 units produced and combat use in Ukraine, the sea-launch trial marks a key milestone in Britain's push toward a 'hybrid navy' strategy.
