Straight out of "Terminator"
Scary!
Ooooooh it's an anti-ballistic missile missile .... oh jeez. I thought it was some kind of UAV that could kill multiple ground targets at once.
Now I don't think this video is "fake", but it almost looks it. Quite surreal.
Thatls one impressive piece of tech!
Great and all, except... why? We need more information as to its purpose, as at the moment I'm seeing something a much quieter rotor based unit could do just as well, re: the hovering aspect.
Sigh............It is designed to work in the vacuum of space. No air and those rotors wouldn't work. Read the title of the topic.

Skynet became aware......................
Looks like the "funnel system" in animation called "Gundam"
Terminator? what?
I'm not dissing its execution - but it is basically a well coordinated group of thrusters, valves, piping and fuel tank. The technology is already used when the shuttle or satellite orbits are moved adjusted in space.
Nothing to be afraid of.
All I gotta say is wow, try to understand the problem of accomplishing that! This takes more than Kalman filters.
something similar was tested as early as 1999:
Japan also had a similar test of their own:
