Sorry !!!

It says even advanced drone





Manned aircraft!?

Manned and unmanned .... both options.

What do you think why a manned version? What's the point of having a manned version when it can do same job without a pilot.
won't pilot will be uncomfortable and unsafe there, as room for him would be tight and if not having a ejectable seat.

Good on you keep it up, with all the new technological tits and bits.

But if someone know the name of this organization?

Pakistani company produces country’s second drone technology

Published: November 22, 2016


KARACHI: A private Pakistani company, which designed and produced the country’s first drone called ‘Buraq’, has now come up with an even advanced drone aircraft technology, which can remain in the air for up to 15-hours and be utilised for surveillance of development projects among other uses.

“The best civilian application of the long range aerial surveillance aircraft {Arrow} is that it is capable of monitoring and making secure trade via the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC),” said Raja Sabri Khan, Chief Executive at Integrated Dynamics.

Drones, deaths and incredulity

The aircraft, which can be operated via remote control, has been put on display at the defence weapons exhibition, IDEAS 2016, which is to get under way on Tuesday (today).

Sabri said the surveillance system can be operated via remote in the range of 250 kilometers (or 150 miles). “If you operate it on a satellite system then its range becomes unlimited. You can operate it in any part of the world while sitting in Karachi,” he said.

He said the unique feature of the aircraft is that it can fly non-stop for up to 15 hours. “The feature is not available in any other such system at this economic cost … its price is not more than a valued 4X4 jeep,” he said.

It can be used to pinpoint leakages of oil and gas from long-laid pipelines like the ones managed by Pakistan Petroleum Limited, Sui Southern Gas Company and Sui Northern Gas Pipeline Limited. At the same time, it can be used to monitor and secure sensitive sites, he said.

The system can also be used by geologists and agriculturalists for collecting required data on earth or farms.

It can fly even at nighttime. “You just feed the data regarding the route you want the drone to take and sit back,” he said.

Besides, the aircraft is also capable of carrying military weapons and equipment. “It can fly with a payload of 100-150 kilogrammes,” he said.

“Arrow is a revolutionary new concept in aerial surveillance using optionally piloted vehicle converted ultra-light aircraft,” he said.

With field portability, and a one-hour assembly time on site with the wing-fold system, “it is a great armament, payload delivery, and stands-off surveillance platform,” he said.

“It can be packed in a standard truck-mounted 20-foot container,” he said.

The aircraft would be prepared in Korangi, Karachi. It is the result of 15-20 years research work, added the official.

He said that his company exports such military and civilian surveillance systems across the world, while western countries remain its big clients.

Pakistan should test & try LH-10 Ellipse drone version LH-D.

Developed by LH-Aviation (France) from the cell and the thermal engine of the LH-10 Ellipse tandem light two-seater aircraft, the LH-D is a tactical drone with OPV Optionally Piloted Vehicle Partnership with the Vestel group, developer of Karayel.

On take-off, the LH-D has a maximum mass of 600 kg for an unladen weight of 300 kg. Its operational speed is 100 kts (maximum speed 150 kts), with a range of 24 hours, in all weather conditions. Thanks to its flight control system, it takes off and lands automatically on unprepared tracks. Different types of sensors (optronic ball, synthetic aperture radar ...) can equip it, the data transmission system operating, in LOS (Line-of-Sight), a range of 100 Nm to 5,000 ft of altitude, complying with Otan standards.

CPEC security: Pakistan to launch satellite for the security of CPEC project

The U.S. Army has launched the debut flight of its massive Long Endurance Multi-Intelligence Vehicle (LEMV), a souped-up blimp designed to fly continuously for 21 days and provide full surveillance of an area.

The LEMV was launched Tuesday from Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst in New Jersey. The test flight lasted about 90 minutes.

The all-seeing airship is longer than football field and taller than a seven-story building, according to maker Northrop Grumman. Its shape separates the 21st-century “hybrid air vehicle,” as Northrop Grumman calls it, from the blimps that have flown over sporting events for decades.



The LEMV is aerodynamic, with a shape closer to an airfoil than an elongated football like classic blimps. So while old-school blimps stay aloft because of the helium inside, the LEMV uses the helium and its shape to achieve lift.

Northrop Grumman has a $517 million contract to build three airships for the Army.

The first test flight included two pilots, but in the future, the Army hopes to have unmanned flights.

“I think the Army sees this as truly an exciting breakthrough,” said Dave Nagy, vice president of business development for military aircraft systems at Northrop Grumman.

He says the Army will benefit from the LEMV because just a handful of these airships will be able to do what no other monitoring system can do. They can stay up in the air for long periods of time and can cover a significant area of ground. And the LEMV will not only be able to scan the ground for insurgents, but it may also have other uses, like hauling supplies and precious cargo to troops.

At a time when the military is looking for more cost-effective options for intelligence and surveillance gathering in places like Afghanistan, fueling the blimp will costapproximately $11,000 for a 21-day period of service.

Coincidentally, the debut flight took the LEMV right over the site of the fiery Hindenburg disaster on May 6, 1937. Nagy says the location, however, was deliberate.

“It’s one of few locations that has hangar infrastructure for this size of vehicle,” he said.

For now, Northrop Grumman will continue to test the LEMV from Lakehurst, New Jersey, where the company will continue to “expand the flight envelope,” Nagy says. He said this technology will allow the military to be more flexible in the future.

Pakistan right now is on path of indigenisation esp in the field of UAV/UCAV and also after Rafale deal, things wud France wud take a damn long time to end up as a delivered product. Nonetheless there are many other options in hand and if needed ppl out there wud surely explore them but I doubt we need anything from outside right now as what we already have is ALHUMDULILLAH more than enough.

Sorry but that is not the UAV mentioned in the article rather UQAB... Produced in mid 2000s...

The pic of the UAV being mentioned isnt available ... it can be flown by a pilot aswell as by remote control...

I would second that as the Officer in the first pic is wearing the ranks which were used back in 2000 as PAF has now shifted to new ranks.
@SOHEIL

What do you think why a manned version? What's the point of having a manned version when it can do same job without a pilot.
won't pilot will be uncomfortable and unsafe there, as room for him would be tight and if not having a ejectable seat.

It might be more of sort of glider as evident.

I will confirm tomorrow Personally from ID Aerospace

Eagerly waiting.

so is this the new Optionally Piloted Vehicle ......???

just observe another clear screenshot

are we looking towards Pakistani Wingloong?

I don't think so ....

Is Integrated Dynamics working on a MALE/HALE UAV/UCAV

Whats the problem in having options?

why would i have any problem with that i just asked a question, looking at a drone pic you shared my question was valid, but why being rude!

thanks sir. looking at post #67 it looks more like it.

I don't think so ....

Mostly look like a flying rickshaw rather then drone.
