The Fairchild BQ-3 also known as the Model 79 was an early unmanned combat aerial vehicle – referred to at the time as an assault drone – developed by Fairchild Aircraft from the company’s AT-21 Gunner advanced trainer during the Second World War for use by the United States Army Air Forces. Two examples of the type were built and flight-tested however the progress of guided missiles rendered the assault drone quickly obsolete and the type was not produced.
