(B2) Two Spanish Eurofighter fighter planes took part in tests in France, in Istres, against the nEURON flying drone prototype (carried by Dassault with several European manufacturers) announced at the end of December the Spanish Ministry of Defense.
The detachment belongs to the Logistics Center for Armaments and Experimentation (CLAEX), with two aircraft and the support of the maintenance personnel of the air squadron Ala 11, based in Moron. The objective of the tests was to assess the detectability of a stealth UCAV with the panoply of sensors available in the Eurofighter aircraft: air-to-air radar, IRST (Infrared Search and Track) and IRIS-T missile.
