French firm MERIO is developing a drone-based laser targeting system that allows unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to mark targets for precision strikes, keeping personnel safely out of frontline danger. By “illuminating” targets with a laser, UAVs with the designator system enable artillery, aircraft, or naval units to hit with higher accuracy. Continue reading
– NEWT21, the Latvian manufacturer specializing in unmanned surface vessels (USVs), has successfully demonstrated advanced autonomous navigation on its FOG USV. This achievement follows the smooth integration of UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía’s autopilot system, carried out through close collaboration between both teams. Continue reading
– Insitu, a Boeing Company, has announced the addition of Proliferated Low Earth Orbit (PLEO) Satellite Communication (SATCOM) datalinks and laser-targeting capabilities to its long-endurance, battle-tested ScanEagle Uncrewed Aircraft System (UAS). These enhancements position ScanEagle as the premier choice for reliable over-the-horizon Beyond Line of Sight (BLOS) Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance and Targeting (ISR-T) missions, further solidifying its reputation as the most proven small UAS in operation today.
