Selex Galileo has performed the first flight of its Falco Evo
tactical unmanned air vehicle, with the 40min debut having been
conducted from the Bulgarian air force's Cheshnegirovo air base.
In a 24 July statement, the Finmeccanica company said the extended endurance version of its in-service Falco design was flown to an altitude of only 1,500ft (460m) to check its three flap configurations, and handled "exceptionally well".
"After performing several approaches aimed at verifying the behaviour
during landing, the Falco Evo touched down smoothly and returned to the
hangar, where it will await further trials including testing of its
flight and mission envelopes," Selex Galileo said.
