Will the Aeronautics UAV also operate in Afghanistan?
Aeronautics is completing the development of an automatic takeoff and landing system for its Aerostar UAVs supplied to the Polish military.
According to CEO Avi Leumi, the development of the system will be completed in the coming months.
Polands military procured two Aerostar UAV systems in the framework of a $35 million contract intended to support the multinational forces stationed in Afghanistan.
The Israeli company is accelerating its efforts to upgrade the software of the UAVs flight control system. The upgrade is intended to allow it to carry out the final landing approach safely in strong winds with the ground effect phenomenon in the operational area (the influence of ground proximity on the UAVs gliding flight).
The Aerostar is 4.5 m in length, has a wingspan of 7.5 m, its maximum takeoff weight is 210 kg, and it has an aerial duration capability of approximately 12 consecutive hours.
