Could you build this?

No This is defense hardware combining millimeter-wave RF engineering, radar seeker hardware, and real-time embedded guidance and control algorithms.

What it would actually take: A production radar seeker requires custom RF/antenna array hardware design, MMIC transceivers, FPGA/DSP signal processing (range-Doppler mapping, target tracking), and guidance navigation control (GNC) firmware running on real-time operating systems (RTOS). It also requires rigorous aerodynamic and electronic environmental testing, ITAR/defense regulatory compliance, and physical drone airframe integration.
