UK Begins Development of High-Altitude Surveillance Balloons
Israa Farhan The British Ministry of Defense has announced the development of high-altitude unmanned surveillance balloons designed to support national security and enhance military reconnaissance capabilities. According to an official statement published on the Ministry's website, the new program focuses on creating drone-guided balloons capable of conducting surveillance, monitoring, and enemy force detection missions as part of the government's broader defense transformation agenda. The balloons were tested earlier this year in South Dakota, United States. During the trials, the aircraft demonstrated an impressive range of over 2,000 nautical miles while flying at altitudes between 18,000 and over 24,000 meters. The Ministry confirmed that the tested models can carry payloads of up to three kilograms and remain operational for more than five consecutive days. This innovative project is being developed through a partnership between UK-based defence firms Volant Autonomy and Landguard Systems, with additional technical collaboration from the US company Aerostar. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" Arts & Culture Hawass Foundation Launches 1st Course to Teach Ancient Egyptian Language
