In May 2026, our company conducted a flight in OPV mode (Optionally Piloted Vehicle), validating the C2 system architecture and communication performance of its drone.
Flight in OPV mode, Optionally Piloted Vehicle, represents a pivotal step in the maturation of a drone system. At the boundary between traditional piloted flight and autonomous flight, it makes it possible to test and validate in real conditions the entire command and control (C2) architecture, as well as the robustness of uplink and downlink communications. These technical foundations condition the operational reliability of a drone in a real environment, and this is precisely what our May 2026 flight confirmed.
The results of this flight validate several critical parameters: the stability of the data link in real flight conditions, the ability of the C2 system to maintain reliable control over the platform, and the overall coherence of the system architecture. These validations are not merely technical, they demonstrate a level of technological maturity that distinguishes our approach from many other market players. Developing a drone is one thing; mastering the entire system chain that makes it operational is what makes the difference.
