France to arm surveillance & intelligence drones – defense minister
Published time: 5 Sep, 2017 17:59
France will soon begin arming its surveillance and intelligence drones, the country's defense minister has announced, saying the move will help France's military become "more effective" and allow it to better use its fighter jets and helicopters.
"I decided to begin the process of arming our intelligence and surveillance drones," Defense Minister Florence Parly said in a speech in the southeastern French city of Toulon, as quoted by AFP.
The decision will initially apply to the six unarmed Reaper surveillance drones that France bought from the US, Parly said, adding that the UAVs will be armed from 2019.
