Teledyne FLIR Defense has introduced the Rogue 1, a new exploding drone designed to enhance the precision strike capabilities of the U.S. Marine Corps. This initiative is part of the Organic Precision Fires-Light (OPF-L) project, which aims to equip Marines with advanced, easy-to-use unmanned aerial systems. Teledyne is set to deliver over 100 Rogue 1 drones, which can effectively target both infantry and armored vehicles.

Rogue 1, weighing approximately 10 pounds, is capable of vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL), eliminating the need for additional launch equipment. It features a modular warhead system that can be adapted for different mission requirements, including anti-armor and anti-personnel operations. The drone’s warheads, coupled with high-precision sensors on a gimbal, allow for precise targeting, minimizing collateral damage.

The drone’s design includes a recovery feature; if a mission is aborted or the drone is undetonated, it can be safely disarmed and reused. 

Brian Bills, Director of UAS Products at Teledyne, highlighted the drone’s efficiency in delivering payloads with precision, which is critical in modern warfare where the distinction between combatants and non-combatants can be blurred. Rogue 1 has already been tested in various military exercises and was initially supplied to the U.S. Special Operations Command in 2022.

The introduction of Rogue 1 aligns with the growing military reliance on unmanned systems, providing the Marine Corps with an enhanced capability to engage threats while keeping personnel out of harm’s way. This development reflects the increasing sophistication and utility of drone technology in modern combat scenarios.
