The AAROK drone, developed by Turgis Gaillard and showcased at the 2023 Paris Air Show, stands as the first French-built MALE (Medium Altitude, Long Endurance) drone. Purpose-built for ISR missions in high-intensity combat zones and maritime surveillance, AAROK offers significant operational flexibility.
To meet the drone’s demanding mission profile, Thales’s AirMaster S radar was selected, thanks to its proven performance in real-world combat operations, both for export customers and within France. The radar’s success on platforms like France’s ATL2 maritime patrol aircraft and its seamless compatibility with MALE drones made it an ideal choice for the AAROK.
