124/BQM-34A Firebee
(Shadmit)
The 124 Firebee (BQM-34A) was a subsonic target drone
that first flew in December 1958. Shadmit UAVs entered service in 1971
and served as target drones. The IAF has also used it as a decoy against
enemy SAM batteries. As a drone, it's painted bright orange for ease of
identification.

The Firebee series of targets drones and remotely piloted vehicles was
one of the most successful and versatile unmanned aircraft ever developed.
