The Norwegian Defence Ministry noted that the Ukrainian authorities are very pleased with the previous deliveries of this reconnaissance drone, which was developed in co-operation between the Norwegian Armed Forces and the Norwegian Defence Research Institute.

It is reported that the Ukrainian authorities requested the transfer of this kind of equipment for use in an armed conflict.

“The drone developed by Norwegian company Teledyne FLIR is the world market leader, being used in a number of allied countries, including the US and the UK. The device is used for reconnaissance and identification of targets,” the Norwegian Defence Ministry said.

It is noted that the UAV is easy to operate, resistant to external influences, it is difficult to detect it, and it is especially well suited for combat operations in urban environments.
