How is it able to fly such long distance, without running out of fuel?
Drones for war = one way trip? It won’t be capable to return from a long journey right?

Military drones are often pictured in the air so you think they are quite small.
[Here’s a MQ-9 Reaper with people around it](https://root-nation.com/wp-content/webp-express/webp-images/doc-root/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/mq-9-reaper-0.jpg.webp)
[Same with a Global Hawk](https://www.defensenews.com/air/2024/02/29/northrop-grumman-modifying-global-hawk-drones-for-hypersonic-tests/)
[The Bayraktar TB-2 is](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayraktar_TB2#/media/File:Bayraktar_TB2_at_2020_Victory_Parade_in_Baku.jpg)… yeah it’s kinda small as guided missile/bomber drones go, but even so its little sports aircraft engine still has a few hundred kilometers in it on one tank.
