Exail to supply Caméléon unmanned demining robots to Belgium Armed Forces
The Caméléon LG UGV includes remote operational capabilities and real-time hazard detection.
Unifly has launched a broadcast location and identity platform (BLIP), an e-Identification and tracking device for UAS.
The device works independently with its own power source and sensors for position, altitude, temperature, pressure, speed and direction. As soon as the pilot attaches it to a UAS, it is ready for use.
BLIP has been customised to meet the specific needs of UAS traffic management (UTM) service providers and local authorities. It has an endurance of up to four hours and offers wireless charging.
From the moment BLIP senses vertical movement, it automatically starts sending tracking data over the LTE wireless broadband network to the UTM network. Additionally, BLIP broadcasts the UAS e-identification, 3D location and take-off position over Bluetooth low energy.
This information can be accessed in real-time by relevant authorities through secured applications, allowing them to read out all details of UAS flying within a range of up to 200m.
In combination with the Unifly UTM platform, BLIP provides a complete solution for authorities to identify and track UAS traffic in their area of responsibility, independent of the systems used by the UAS operators.

The UAS, which detects and tracks drone swarms, will be demonstrated to the US Air Force Global Strike team in January 2025.
Despite claiming there was no need for a drone corps, Army Aviation remains ready to address UAS and CUAS warfighter requirements, as it focuses on adaptability and rapid deployment across all levels of warfare.
Kiev and Moscow have been competing over who can better harness the ongoing revolution in military affairs caused by AI-controlled and human-operated robots and drones.
This time, the UAS flew into NATO airspace, though there is no evidence that they did so deliberately.
South Korea is rapidly advancing its UAV programmes and counter-drone capabilities in response to increasing threats from North Korea’s unmanned aerial systems.
