Maiden flight of the Cassidian Atlante

Something about the look of this platform tells me we will see more of it. A very no nonsense practical look. I like it very much! On 28 February 2013, Cassidian successfully performed the maiden flight of the Atlante Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). The flight took place at Rozas airfield, in the Castro de Rey municipality of Lugo, Spain.
