Sagem’s Patroller unmanned aircraft system (UAS) completed a new series of flight tests, demonstrating new multi-sensor technologies.
Among the tests, Sagem said the Patroller demonstrated the ability to fuse information from different sensors and to transmit them to a command and control centre for coastal surveillance. The 1-tonne class drone completed 18 test flights, where it was equipped with a version of the Sagem Euroflir 350 gyrostabilised optronic pod with a high-definition, infrared channel and a laser rangefinder. The Patroller also carried an automatic identification system receiver, which enabled real-time monitoring of maritime traffic over a large zone, and a distress beacon detector.
In December, Sagem received authorisation from French authorities to fly the Patroller over densely populated zones in civilian airspace, and the company said it expects to deliver a fully operational Patroller drone by early 2013.
