Cucuyo and Cavok UAS announced that they have successfully completed the first flight tests of Cucuyo's P-100 airborne laser communication terminal installed on Cavok UAS drones. A total of twelve tests were conducted in Spain to validate the integration of key systems and pave the way for future product development advances.

The flight tests followed in-depth physical and mechanical integration phases and simulated conditions that closely reflect real-world operational scenarios. The tests with Cucuyo's P-100 laser communication terminal were carried out in collaboration with Cavok UAS France, skilled engineers from Cavok Spain and experienced test pilots. Spain was chosen as the test location because it provides an ideal environment for evaluating performance.

The flight tests exceeded expectations, and all predefined objectives were achieved. The results will serve as basis for the next phase of technical development of the laser communication terminal. This includes incorporating a new version of the terminal for further testing, with the focus on the robustness of data link itself.

“We are thrilled with the outcomes of these flight tests. They not only validate the robustness of the integration process but also set the stage for the next critical milestones in our innovation journey. We look forward to the upcoming tests with the updated Cucuyo P-100 terminal, which will bring us one step closer to creating a fully operational solution,” says Fabrice Parodi, CEO Cavok UAS.

“The results of these flight tests, which we obtained thanks to our partner Cavok UAS, are invaluable for the validation of our product. The data has already been evaluated by our specialists and will enable us to optimize the operational concepts and our P-100's link stabilization system,” adds Dr. Markus Knapek, CTO & Managing Director Cucuyo.
