In the current military sphere, drones have been widely used for combat tasks including reconnaissance, shooting and destruction. Bird drones designed for combat have the characteristic of flying like an eagle with the force of flapping two wings that are about 2 meters wide. The wing flapping movement is driven by a gear motor which has a torque of 10kg/cm, the lift force is capable of carrying a total payload load of 1kg so it can carry explosives and cameras weighing 500 grams and throw the explosives at the target point. This bird drone is equipped with GPS to determine flying coordinates, the bird drone control system from a distance of up to 2 km can be controlled manually using a remote control and internet of things waypoint-based autopilot. This bird drone is equipped with frequency hopping and data encryption so it is not easily jammed or controlled by enemies. The sound of flapping wings produced by bird drones when flying is relatively low, below 10 dB (silent). In this way, the bird drone's movements can be disguised towards the target so that the enemy can be fooled by the bird drone's camouflage. Keywords: The eagle drone, AI, reconnaissance, and camouflage 1. INTRODUCTION Hybrid war is a concept that refers to a form of conflict that uses different types of strategies and tactics. Asymmetric combat tactics have given birth to new types of tactics in combat that utilize the role of technology. Effective and efficient values are a measure of success in achieving main tasks. Moving quickly, precisely, quietly, with large and measurable destructive power becomes effective when the role of technology dominates the use of defense equipment today. One of them is the development of unmanned weapons which have been widely used by many countries to strengthen the country's combat actions. High speed and accuracy have greatly benefited the country's battle tactics for victorious exploits. Therefore, the Indonesian National Army is required to adapt to the transformation of modern weapon system technology and the personnel who man it are able to master and utilize leaps in the fields of robotic technology, information technology and artificial intelligence technology, so that they are ready to anticipate the new character of future battles, which have the power destroyed more (high level of destruction) and ready to face battles that last shorter in determining the winner (decisive battle), and ready to face hybrid battles that combine various tactics at once, both conventional and non-conventional tactics, as well as cross- dimensional tactics, both social and social. politics and economics (KEP Doctrine, 2021) Faced with the regional topology in conflict areas in Indonesia, such as Papua, which is known for its hilly terrain and lots of trees, this creates obstacles and requires a lot of energy to scout, chase or paralyze separatists (Armed Criminal Groups). Currently, the Indonesian National Army is also reinforced with "reconnaissance drones" to detect the presence of the KKB. However, the use of reconnaissance drones is only limited to viewing targets without being able to carry out shooting or destruction actions against targets. This condition gives the opponent the opportunity to escape from monitoring and lose the moment/opportunity to paralyze the opponent. The use of Drone Bombers with quadcopter or hexacopter models to destroy targets was used during the Ukraine - Russia war. Current technological innovations in quadcopter and hexacopter drones are still considered to make it easy to release bombs mounted on the bottom of the drone, however, the sound of the drone's propeller or propeller can be heard, thereby raising suspicion and the readiness of opposing forces to shoot the drone or avoid being chased by the drone. Therefore, it is necessary to make a drone that can maneuver and throw bombs without being suspected because it has a silent aspect and does not look like a drone but has camouflage that resembles an animal, in this case a bird, to trick the enemy. From the background that has been explained, it is necessary to have bird drones as an alternative for using silent, stealthy and IoT-based technology. This bird drone has a shape and movement like an eagle, which is controlled remotely either manually by RC or IoT. With a real-time data telemetry system, the program is able to direct the drone and destroy opponents at programmed coordinates, by launching or throwing bombs and the results can be monitored remotely via GSU (Ground Station Unit).
