High-speed Expendable Aerial Target (HEAT) offers a realist threat scenario for practice of weapon systems.

HEAT-ABHYAS is an expendable high-speed unmanned aerial target developed by DRDO.

ABHYAS is designed for autonomous flying with the help of an autopilot.

A lunberg lens in the nose cone improves the RCS of the target for weapon practice.

It also has an Acoustic Miss Distance Indicator (AMDI) to indicate the miss distance.
