The X-01 Hornet drone will be fully customisable, supporting a range of military and civilian applications, from aerial fire support to detecting dangerous levels of radiation.
its front mounted electro-optical infrared camera, while useful for reconnaissance, could even see it used in filming Hollywood blockbusters, according to its creators.
The prototype X-01 Hornet was unveiled at the International Defence Exhibition (IDEX) arms show in Abu Dhabi, held on Monday.
Its creators, Serbian firm Engine Development and Production (EDePro), say it is designed to carry a variety of equipment, for use in military campaigns and civilian operations.
Options include radar guidance and jamming systems, surveillance apparatus and even weaponry - including four fibre optic guided missiles and a 12.7 mm machine gun.
The development of the aircraft began back in 2012, according to reports in trade publication Jane's 360.
The Hornet, which is 6.75 metres long, 1.8 metres wide and 2.65 metres high, will be constructed from carbon fibre, lightweight steel and aluminium.
A Phoenix-250 DF turboshaft engine producing 180 kW of power will drive a 7.6 metre diameter, twin-bladed rotor.
Its creator Dr Predrag Matejic told Jane's the Hornet will have a top speed of 112 miles per hour (180 km/h) and cruising and 100 miles per hour (160 km/h).
It should have a flight duration of up to four hours and be able to fly as high as 13,000 ft.
The aircraft will weigh 400 kg when empty, in addition to carry further equipment up to 350 kg.
The standard fuel load will be around 200 litres.
