Unmanned Air Systems: Training
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 27 October to Question 83064 on Unmanned Air Systems: Training, how many base level FPV operators were trained via Project DRONE ACADEMY.
Answered by Al Carns
Project DRONE ACADEMY was a time limited innovation project that ran for 12 months from May 2024 to April 2025. The 120 operators were trained from a variety of units across Army, Navy and Air Force. At the end of the trial, all lessons and equipment from the project were transferred to the Army’s Combat Manoeuvre Centre (CMC) to inform their ongoing FPV drone flying training offering.
