— In-game description
The XD-1 Accipiter is a Battle Pickup featured in Battlefield 4: Final Stand. The XD-1 is a small experimental combat drone equipped with a rotary cannon, capable of flight and hover via rocket thruster ports placed across its body.
The XD-1 flies similarly to the MAV, able to hover and rapidly decelerate. Similar to the SUAV, the XD-1 has a limited fuel time. Once the fuel is used up, the XD-1 will self-destruct.
However, operators of the XD-1 can avoid its self-destruction by flying it back then picking up it again to recharge the fuel.
The XD-1 is equipped with a rotary cannon.
Like the SUAV and MAV, it is capable of Roadkilling targets. It can be locked onto with anti-air missiles, such as Stinger missiles or Heat Seekers.

- The name of the XD-1 Accipiter is taken from the SD-8 Accipiter drone in Battlefield 2142.
