Asian unmanned aerial vehicle operators are showing interest in a revolutionary helicopter UAV on display for the first time at Asian Aerospace.
The Vigilant rotary wing UAV features a fully autonomous capability not fielded on a UAV before, says Jean-Patrick Kaniecki, sales and marketing director, Techno Sud Industries.
The French company has been developing the technology to allow the UAV to fly pre-programmed missions or return to base if its communications data link is broken.
The French army and navy have already used the system.
