Schiebel has completed test of a new heavy fuel engine for the Camcopter S-100 UAS (Unmanned Air System). This engine is built by Schiebel with rotary engine design and it meets a growing demand for heavy fuel use across both military and civil maritime domains
Schiebels CAMCOPTER S-100 Unmanned Air System (UAS) has demonstrated its capabilities to the South African Navy from 20 to 23 October 2015 in the shipboard trials. During the trials the payload of choice was the Selex ES SAGE Electronic Support Measure (ESM) system, rendering the CAMCOPTER S-100 capable of detecting, identifying and geo-locating radio frequency sources while it routinely operates out to ranges of 200 km or remains on-station for periods of more than 6 hours, the company announced today
Selex ES has signed a contract with US-based prime contractor Integrated Surveillance and Defense Inc. (ISD) to provide a SAGE 600 digital Electronic Support Measure (ESM) system for the Indonesian Air Force
Indias Directorate of Naval Air Staff has issued Request for Information (RFI) last month seeking 50 ‘Naval Ship-Borne Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (NSUAS) that can augment various patrolling and search-related tactics on its vessels. Indian Navy currently operates two squadrons of Israeli-origin Heron and Searcher Mk-II UAVs at the Indian Naval Air Station (INAS) 342 at Kochi and INAS 343 at Porbandar in Gujarat and Kerala
Mozambique has ordered three additional HS132 interceptor vessels to the existing order of three ocean eagle 43 trimaran patrol vessels and three HS132 interceptors ordered in September 2013 from CMN, a French shipyard. Meanwhile, the first Ocean Eagle 43 trimaran patrol vessel has been launched by the French Shipyard Thursday
The French defence procurement agency (DGA) and DCNS have validated the functional integration of an unmanned air vehicle (UAV) with the combat system of a warship. The successful physical and functional integration of a tactical VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) UAV on board a surface combatant by DCNS, with no impact on flight safety, represents a major breakthrough for naval air forces
The Camcopter S-100 by Schiebel, the Austrian hightech company, will again be the only UAS (Unmanned Air System) taking part in the daily flight displays (20th to 26th June) at the Paris Air Show. Flight imagery from the three-meter drone along with data from its onboard sensor will be transmitted in real time to the Air Show s TV station
The Austrian company Schiebel, market leader in unmanned helicopters, and Diehl are offering the CAMCOPTER S-100 to the German armed forces. In a comprehensive test program of the German Navy, CAMCOPTER S-100 has repeatedly proved its capability of safe operations on vessels in heavy seas and rough conditions
DCNS successfully landed a rotary-wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in automatic mode on French Navy frigate Montcalm while the ship was under way in the Mediterranean on 9 and 10 October 2008. Until now, unresolved challenges involving UAV recovery by ships at sea have limited their deployment for safety reasons
