👉🇬🇧🇵🇹 Good news from Portugal & UK for Europe:

AICEP: "🚁 Portugal strengthens its position in defence innovation as TEKEVER is selected to help the British Armed Forces design a new generation of drones to support Apache helicopters in attack missions.

Invited to present a design under the NYX project, Tekever will contribute to the development of advanced Unmanned Air Systems capable of operating alongside Apache helicopters in complex battlefield scenarios.

These next generation drones are expected to support missions through reconnaissance and scouting in disputed areas, target acquisition and attack coordination, and electronic warfare operations.

Powered by artificial intelligence, the systems will be able to take independent decisions within predefined mission parameters, adapting in real time to dynamic and high-risk environments.

The objective is clear: increase operational efficiency while reducing risk exposure and the logistical burden on human-operated systems.

Portugal continues to demonstrate its technological capability in high-value sectors, reinforcing its role as a trusted partner in advanced defence solutions."
