A loitering munition, also known as a Suicide Drone, is a kind of unmanned Military Vehicle (usually aerial, but can be surface-based as well) with a built-in warhead that is typically designed to loiter around a target area until a target is located, then attack the target by crashing into it. Loitering munitions enable faster reaction times against hidden targets that emerge for short periods without placing high-value platforms near the target area and also allow more selective targeting as the attack can be changed mid-flight or aborted.
