Thales and its partner Schiebel have advanced to the final four contenders for Project NYX under the Land Autonomous Collaborative Platform (ACP) framework. Building on their earlier selection as one of the top seven participants, the companies are proposing Schiebel’s CAMCOPTER® S-301 as a next-generation rotary-wing Uncrewed Air System (UAS).

Their collaboration focuses on strengthening sovereign autonomy and crewed/uncrewed teaming capabilities through advanced autonomous technologies, with the aim of improving operational effectiveness, adaptability, and mission success in modern defense environments.
