Neuseeland: Beschaffung von Loitering Munitions

NZDF force elements lack the ability to engage targets beyond visual line of sight with organic, precise, low collateral damage kinetic effects. They are a small unmanned aerial system designed to engage targets with an explosive warhead and are equipped with a high resolution electro-optical and infrared camera that enables the operator to locate, identify and direct the munition onto target. The ‘loiter’ capability of these munitions allows the system to remain in orbit, allowing the operator to detect, recognise and identify a target thoroughly before a strike. Current systems come fitted with an anti-armour warhead, have a loiter time of 45+ minutes and a range greater than 40km.
