DARPA [Defense Advanced Research Project Agency] says the MAV can be no larger than 6 inches across, and "capable of performing a useful military mission at an affordable cost". A soldier should be able to reach into his backpack, pop out a micro vehicle, hand-launch it, and then remotely monitor what it detects. More combative versions might act as minicruise missiles or radar-zappers. (Popular Science, January 1998, p. 54). 1, record 2, English, - microflyer
