The (air) show must go on!
After unveiling a full scale, flight-ready "Silent Arrow GD-2000" cargo delivery drone at the defence & security equipment international show in London, in September 2019, Yates Electrospace Corporation (YEC) has announced the design completion and specifications of a wide-body version, with the unveiling set for 20-24 July 2020 at Farnborough international air show, UK.
Developed by YEC based on real-time demand from USA and allied foreign government special operators including the US Army’s 160th special operations aviation regiment (SOAR), it is 60% larger than the standard version, with a 4 cbm cargo bay that accommodates five times more load.
Silent Arrow is designed for fixed-wing and rotorcraft deployment of critically needed supplies, cargo and fuel under austere operating conditions and timelines. (ah)
