The UGV featured twin 40mm grenade launchers, pan-tilt-zoom cameras, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance sensors, and a 7IS remote controlled weapon station made of 80% 3D-printed material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The weapon station weighs less than 40 kilograms (88 pounds) and can carry 50 rounds of munition, according to Saeed Al Mansoori, the CEO of Halcon, another Edge subsidiary. \u201cNow we are in the demonstration phase until we sign a contract,\u201d he told Defense News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beside the Edge booth, private company Ahmed Almazrouei Group showcased several of its UGVs, including a hybrid-powered robot that can be controlled from a distance of up to 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) and can be equipped with weapon systems. The business, which is also based in the United Arab Emirates, also brought surveillance and training ground vehicles as well as laser-guided autonomous shooting systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe hybrid robot was tested with the UAE armed forces in harsh conditions in the country, during [high temperatures in] July &#8230; and in the desert. It has entered production lines to produce 100 systems,\u201d Ahmed Almazrouei, the company\u2019s CEO, told Defense News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two combat drones were also on display: the MQ-9 SeaGuardian by American company General Atomics, and the Bayraktar TB-2 by Turkey\u2019s Baykar Makina. The latter was a full-scale mockup and appeared alongside other drones produced by the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The full-scale SeaGuardian configuration of the MQ-9 featured maritime surface radar technology and an Emirati flag on its tail. The UAE in January 2021 signed off on a deal to purchase 18 MQ-9s from the United States, but it hasn\u2019t been finalized <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/mideast-africa\/2021\/01\/20\/just-hours-before-bidens-inauguration-the-uae-and-us-come-to-a-deal-on-f-35-sales\/\" target=\"_blank\">amid disagreements between the two countries<\/a> over F-35 fighter jets that are part of the package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unmanned systems meant for target practice were also at UMEX. UAE-based company Etimad unveiled four different types showcased with a truck-mounted drone launcher. Italian firm Leonardo exhibited the Mirach 40 target drone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Houbara \u2014 a joint venture between the UAE\u2019s Middle East General Enterprises and the U.K.\u2019s QinetiQ \u2014 also showcased the target drone Banshee Jet 80 used by the Emirati Air Force. And French company RTSYS brought along its acoustic NemoSens target system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Israeli companies also attended the show, with some \u2014 like Easy Aerial and Avnon \u2014 taking part through the Emirati organization International Golden Group. Others such as Elbit Systems, hosted separate stands. (While Easy Aerial is based in the United States, it has a regional office in Israel.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">China North Industries Group Corporation Limited \u2014 NORINCO for short \u2014 also had a presence at the IGG stand with several Chinese-made systems, including a sample of the BZK-005E UAV, rotary-wing and mini- drones, the Red Arrow and Blue Arrow missile systems, the Golden Eagle CR500A unmanned helicopter produced at the China-Emirates Science and Technology innovation laboratory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The China National Aero-Technology Import and Export Corporation (better known as CATIC) had a large stand at the show, where it displayed the U8EA helicopter drone alongside other unmanned system mockups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Russian companies Rostec and Kronshtadt did not attend the show, despite earlier reports that the Russian-made Orion and Orlan drones would be on display. However, Global Energy Transmission brought an autonomous in-flight charging system for drones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Russian system includes a waterproof receiving antenna, a high-power electronics module for power conversion, rapid-charging battery pack, and a data module for communication between the charging station and the onboard receiving system that allows drones to charge each other via their antennas, providing continuous flight thanks to in-flight recharging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Saudi businesses were absent from UMEX; notably, the kingdom is hosting its own defense conference in early March, dubbed World Defense Show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">India\u2019s Zen Technologies allowed UMEX attendees to choose a rifle or machine gun to simulate hitting targets in an environment similar to the Gulf region. The combat training specialist has an office in the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Australian company Marathon Target brought with it a small robot meant for training scenarios; the robot would mimic human response when shot by bending forward and continuing moving as if injured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And Emirati firm Cynax unveiled the Kungs\u00f6rn, a vertical-takeoff-and-landing surveillance drone that can launch from a truck. Data scientists with the company have completed a facial recognition feature and are reportedly working on risk analysis score technology by collecting social media data. They expect the technology will roll out in a few months and be used for security reasons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And see the systems that Russian, Chinese, Indian and
