Correct answer

Mikoyan Skat

Explanation

Designed by the Russian firm Russian Aircraft Corporation MiG, the Skat ("manta ray") is one of two concept strike- unmanned combat aerial vehicles developed for the Russian Defense Ministry. SKAT is a low-observable, subsonic craft meant to carry weapons in two ventral weapons bays large enough for missiles such as the Kh-31, powered by a single Klimov RD-5000B turbofan engine, a variant of the RD-93. Possible roles include the suppression and attack of enemy air defenses. The first version of Skat to fly is planned to be piloted in order to meet Russian flight regulations. A number of aerodynamic configurations have been wind tunnel-tested, including with small twin fins.
