The smaller ones (Shahed-136 ) carry upto 110 pounds of explosive, but they can also carry an observation platform when not being used on one-way missions
Wikipedia says it uses this engine https://www.militarydrones.org.cn/md...-p00583p1.html produces 50hp and claims the Shahed overall weighs in at 440 pounds. That all seems a bit much for an 8 foot span/ 11 foot length, but https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HESA_Shahed_136 and is backed by https://en.defence-ua.com/weapon_and...pecs-4207.html
