Greek Unmanned Aerial Vechile PEGASOS I
 The first UAV fully made in Greece is ready and operational.

It has: dimensions: wingspan-5m, length-4,5m, height-1,6m Autonomy for 6 hours. With calm weather it has range of 180km. Max flight height:16.000 ft.Wings and body made of resinous materials installed gyroscopes electronic sensors-that offer real-time data optic cameras with low (for the time being) resolution, that offer real-time video gps guidance automatic robot pilot, in case the transmittion of the base is lost, or is damaged from enemy jams.. full handbook of use that explains the slightest detail and act of the maintainance and operational procedure, "equal" to the manned aircrafts...

It Requires: 170 meters field to take off. a team of highly trained engineers, technicians, air-force officers. tactical flight excercises at least 3 times the month

SPERWER Tactical UAV System

 Sperwer unmanned aerial system (UAS) is designed to support Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and reconnaissance (ISTAR) at the battlegroup level (brigade to division).

The Sperwer system comprises three aerial vehicles, ground control station (GCS), transportable hydraulic catapult and ground data terminal (GDT) housed in the communications shelter carried on high mobility vehicles. The entire system can be transported in two C-130 aircraft and operate from unprepared sites using catapult launch, and parachute and airbags recovery.

The system supports simultaneous control of two aircraft, from a single GCS. Furthermore, several GCSs can control multiple missions, and can hand-over UAVs between each other. The ground station is provided with advanced mission planning tools, including 3D terrain modeling and flight path presentation on a geographical data system, image processing, interpretation and connection to C4I networks and compatibility with NATO datalinks and communications networks. To improve survivability and stealth, the GCS can be located up to 2 kilometers from the GDT.





Sperwer is designed to carry the Sagem OLOSP FLIR payload, providing high resolution day and night imagery and target geolocation with an accuracy of 20 meters. Other payloads designed for Sperwer include ELINT, COMINT, communications relay and SAR. The aircraft is equipped with a digital J band datalink (15GHz) and transponder/IFF (Mode 3C) and VHF relay for easy integration in controlled airspace. Sperwer B will be able to carry multiple payloads (EO/IR and SAR or EO/IR and relay etc.) It will also be equipped with two underwing hardpoints, to carry external loads of up to 30kg each. Sagem has already demonstrated the integration of Sperwer B with the SPIKE LR missile and is cooperating with GIAT, to test a new smart munition delivery system, based on the Bonus submunition. According to Sagem, the armed configuration requires the reduction of up to 20 kg of fuel, thus limiting the endurance of the armed Sperwer.
