Schiebel Pacific and  Raytheon  Australia  have teamed  up  for  the  LAND129  Phase  3  Tactical  Unmanned  Aerial  System  (TUAS) project for the Australian Army. The tender response was submitted last week.

The teaming couples Schiebel’s proven and world-class CAMCOPTER®S-100 UAS with Raytheon  Australia’s 20  year  pedigree  as a  trusted, prime  systems  integrator  across multiple  domains. Together,  the  companies  will  deliver  a  solution  that  provides  a  highly capable,  low  risk  offering  that  is  intended  to  establish  an  enduring  sovereign TUAS capability.

Schiebel Pacific has extensive experience in working  with the AustralianDefence Force(ADF)and  local industry. The RoyalAustralian  Navy operates  several  systems  at  822X Squadron, Nowra,New South Wales.
