IDET 2021: Pakistan’s armed Shahpar-II undergoing flight trials

Pakistan’s Global Industrial Defence & Solutions (GIDS) was present at the IDET exhibition in Brno during October 6-8, showcasing a range of systems including the Shahpar-II unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Until this year the Shahpar-II was used primarily for surveillance by the Pakistan Army with a ZUMR-II electro-optical payload. However, flight trials are now underway for an armed version featuring two 45kg Burraq laser guided munitions. An image of the Shahpar-II at the GIDS stand, without the Burraq weapons. Alan
