The Artillery Corps “Sky Rider” Unit is preparing to deploy a new UAS (Unmanned Aircraft Systems) which will introduce a significant improvement in its takeoff, flight and visual capabilities, transferring aerial footage of the situation directly to the battalion.

The system comprises a new version of “Skylark”, the UAS operated by the Unit, and a new operating system called “Version 10”, which will be integrated within the Unit in the coming days.
