Terminal Autonomy, previously named One Way Aerospace, was founded in mid-2022 by two veterans of the British and Australian militaries and a Ukrainian engineer to develop various low-cost, domestically produced kamikaze drones.

The fuselage is made from milled sheets of plywood from civilian furniture factories, which is a more scalable alternative than 3-D printing or other materials such as fiberglass.

[2][3][4][5][6] Guidance at low altitude uses a laser altimeter to approach at 30 m to minimize the effects of electronic warfare to jam GPS navigation until very close to the target.

A video link option is available so an operator can manually guide the drone to hit moving targets, but this adds costs and only works at shorter ranges.

The use of such drones is intended to overwhelm air defenses as well as make them expend expensive interceptors against cheaper targets, exhausting their supplies over time.
