The crashed pilotless plane was a Searcher MK II tactical UAV used for surveillance, reconnaissance, target acquisition, artillery adjustment and damage assessment.
"There has been no loss to life or property reported. An Inquiry has been ordered to look into the circumstances leading to the crash," a naval spokesperson said.
