Greece tests Sarisa II heavy drone with missile weapons (video)

It is reported that on February 10, Sarisa II successfully launched an unguided rocket (UGR), demonstrating flight stability even under the influence of jet stream. The rocket followed a given trajectory, confirming the reliability of optical targeting methods.

On February 11, the drone tested the Thales FZ275 LGR laser-guided guided missile. The drone hit a 5x5 meter target with a deviation of only 0,2 meters, which corresponds to a circular probable deviation (CVD) of less than one meter. The test was conducted at a distance of 1700 meters, close to the weapon’s minimum operational range.

A public demonstration was held on 12 February, attended by representatives of the Greek Armed Forces, special forces and international delegations. Sarisa II successfully launched the FZ275 LGR from an altitude of 450 meters above sea level, again confirming a CIV of less than 1 meter.

Thus, the tests confirmed that Sarisa II can effectively deploy precision-guided weapons, and the FZ275 LGR missile provides long-range guided missile-level accuracy at a relatively low cost. At the same time, the drone demonstrated high stability in the air during launches, which is extremely important for such platforms.
