An unmanned fixed wing vertical take-off and landing aircraft, including: an elongate fuselage defining a longitudinal axis, the fuselage having a nose and a tail; a pair of rearward swept fixed wings, each wing having a root end respectively attached at an opposite side of a middle portion of the fuselage; three pairs of independent thrust units where at least a first pair of thrust units is positioned at the nose and tail of the fuselage and each of the fixed wings respectively includes at least a pair of thrust units; where the three pairs of independent thrust units are arranged at aerodynamically appropriate locations to enable vertical take-off and landing of the aircraft and to avoid a flight compromise when at least one of the three pairs of thrust units fails to operate.
