Elbit Systems is to equip the British Army with new short-range reconnaissance unmanned aerial systems (UASs).

The company was awarded a contract from the UK Defence Equipment & Support (DE&S) Future Capability Group for the provision of its Magni-X micro-UAS, the company announced on 12 January.

An undisclosed number of the vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) UAS will be delivered by mid-2023 to specialist British Army units, the company said. An option for additional units is included in the contract.

DE&S had not responded to Janes at the time of publication.

The contract is part of the broader British Army Human Machine Teaming (HMT) programme that seeks to enable rapid iterations of novel technology such as autonomous systems. The framework has a financial headroom of GBP300 million (USD365.2 million) over a three-year period – expiring in 2025.
