A US company has developed a disposable unmanned aerial vehicle that is light and small enough for soldiers to carry around in their backpacks.

The UAV, displayed at Farnborough Air Show, could be used in trouble spots to allow troops to quickly assess their surroundings for danger.

The plane, which has been developed by Aurora Flight Sciences, is made out of expanded polypropylene, a more robust version of polystyrene, and weighs only 2lbs. It is little bigger than a laptop computer.
