The close partnership between HENSOLDT and Helsing on the development of the CA-1 Europa is progressing rapidly, with several key milestones already reached. Manufacturing of the V-tail empennage is complete, the main components of the wings have been produced, the fuselage moulds are finished, and the engines are ready to be fitted. Last week, Oliver Dörre, CEO of Hensoldt, and Stephanie Lingemann, Vice President Air at Helsing, briefed German Minister of Defence Boris Pistorius on progress. And today, Hensoldt has announced that its new missile warning system, CAIRAS, will be integrated on board the CA-1 Europa. CAIRAS is an infrared reconnaissance and alert system that strengthens the self-protection capability of the unmanned combat aircraft.
