It is also equipped with the latest generation of autopilot with GPS navigation system.

It can be used by 2 operators for surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) missions, target acquisition ISTAR, close air support JTAC i.e. missions for special operations, convoy tracking, target detection, search and rescue, first aid missions, civil defense, infrastructure control and security missions.
