The air force is satisfied with the Reapers' performances in its operations in the Sahel. Armed since december 2019,they have already conducted 40% of the strikes against armed terrorist groups.

This news is actually not a good sign for the EuroMale,France isn't satisfied with its exhorbitant price for similar,if not inferior performances compared to a MQ9 Reaper.

General Atomics is also very aggressive on the matter,proposing an "Europeanized" version of the Reaper.
