Isn't that just a missile? Is the difference that it doesn't need a launcher?
I'd say the difference is that this one is remote controllable, a missile may fly autonomously?
Yeah that's a cruise missile I thought?
I think the difference between this and a regular cruise missile is that this has manual control and can be more than just a explosive payload delivery system. A cruise missile usually has an assigned target that when fired it will fly to and hit, this can do more complex things like reconissaince.
i guess this one can chase you if it sees you running
