The German company Quantum Systems, specializing in the development of high-tech solutions for unmanned aircraft, announced the conclusion of a historic contract with the Spanish armed forces. According to the agreement, Spain became the first government customer to officially introduce a complete family of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) this company has Vector and Twister .
This strategic acquisition opens up to the Spanish Armed Forces comprehensive capabilities in the field of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR – Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance), covering both short and medium range combat missions.
Characteristics of drones
- Vector is a low—visibility and low-noise UAV with vertical takeoff and landing. It is ideal for short-range tactical reconnaissance and can be used in confined spaces.
- Twister is a medium—range drone with extended autonomous flight time and the ability to carry a heavier payload. It is designed to quickly collect data and provide command of information in real time.
Combining these two systems makes it possible to create a multi-level aerial reconnaissance architecture that increases overall efficiency and flexibility on the battlefield.
This cooperation marks an important step in strengthening Europe's defense capabilities and moving towards more autonomous management of defense technologies. Given the growing interest in dual-use technologies (applicable for both civilian and military purposes), Quantum Systems continues to actively develop its influence in the international market, especially after attracting 160 million euros of investment and obtaining the status of a European "unicorn".
The contract with Spain also demonstrates the desire of EU countries to modernize their military systems with an emphasis on mobility, stealth and the integration of artificial intelligence into combat processes.
