Many tests have already been made in France, but the national rollout is not scheduled until next year. Some units will, however, be used officially in the month of March.

What are they like?

These are actually micro- drones, which do not weigh more than 2 kilos. They have cameras and thus can send images on monitors on the ground, the pilot but also: “These drone systems through their payloads, namely an embedded micro-camera can send real-time information, “said Colonel Jerome Bisognin responsible for this UAV project for the gendarmerie. “This information can be sent not only to a pulpit of télépilotage but also to smartphones or large screen and can analyze situations, make decisions …” he adds. These real time images allow for example to better regulate the events planned or not, official travel, or to make findings on accident sites. This is where the first phase of equipment.
