It includes engineers and contractors who studied and worked at NASA and ancient Western universities and accumulated great experience in Their specialties.
The competencies that ensure the development of the company’s projects specialize in artificial intelligence (AI), embedded electronic systems, and aerospace engineering.
The Moroccan suicide drone is capable of reaching a range of 1,500 km and carrying a warhead weighing up to 40 kg.
The company was founded by Moroccan engineers graduated from European and American universities.
The company is developing 3 different drones:
P1 with a range of 500 km
P2 with a range of 1500 km
The P3 is under development with a larger range
This is only from Ballistic Defense System.
There are also two new Moroccan companies that displayed their suicide drones: X-AR, which displayed a “kamikaze” suicide drone with a range of 500 kilometers, and Aerodrive as well.
There are three Moroccan companies that revealed suicide drones
The Moroccan company BDS reveals a suicide drone with a range of 50 km and an explosive payload of 6 kg, a second version with a range of 1,500 km and an explosive payload of 40 kg, and a third long-range version for coordination.
The Moroccan company Xar reveals a suicide march with a range of 500 km and an explosive payload of 20 kg.
The Moroccan company Aerodrive reveals a suicide mission without additional information
It is a project that has completed experiments and succeeded in receiving support from the government at the exhibition
