Supply of Fixed Wing Drone

The UK Ministry of Defence is procuring fixed-wing drones valued at USD 95,900,000 from an unknown vendor. These drones are intended to supply capabilities likely supporting Royal Navy operations, such as autonomous collaborative platforms for aircraft carriers under projects like Project Vanquish, enabling roles including intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, strike, and air-to-air refuelling alongside F-35B aircraft. This aligns with the UK's strategic push to integrate loyal wingman drones and enhance unmanned systems for carrier-based and combat operations amid evolving defense needs.
