This paper experimentally determinates the calculation of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and analyzes the design criteria within four different scenarios. The UAV to be designed is a loiter munition UAV system. A mobile or equipment such as a parachute and/or airbag. The UAV may be operable day and night conditions, capable of 2-3 hours of flight hours, and will be launched from a catapult. The UAV navigation system is compact and easily controlled by a personal Global Positioning System (GPS). The mentioned UAV will have a vast operational capability, especially for defense and border security activities since it is equipped with advanced avionics and a small physical footprint for covert operations. As a consequence of this research, it can be claimed that the UAV's mid-wing, twin-tail, and relatively light body will have three axis stability and offer numerous benefits, particularly in terms of operational cost.
