The “Veloce 330” is designed with a range of 80 km and an endurance of three hours. The munition utilizes vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) technology and is equipped with a Core Generating Charge to counter active defenses. A GPS-independent and jamming-resistant navigation system, developed by TRAAK, is also integrated.

In addition to its attack capabilities, the “Veloce 330” can perform intelligence missions thanks to an optronic sphere capable of detecting vehicles up to 15 km away during the day and 3 km at night. The munition is designed to ensure that human intervention remains central in the operational decision loop.
