The New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF) is conducting its first experimentation with loitering munitions to keep pace with the changing nature of warfare.
Speaking to Janes in April, Hayden Robinson, the joint experimentation manager for the New Zealand Army, said the NZDF will use the Drone40 loitering munition, built by Australian company DefendTex, for the experimentation.
Experimentation is the first step when the NZDF is interested in possibly acquiring a new capability, Robinson said.
“The NZDF bought a very small number of Drone40 systems for initial assessment,” he said. “These Drone40 units will be used to train soldiers on loitering munitions and get their feedback as well as understand which part of the organisation [NZDF] might use it and how,” he added.
