Airbus Defence and Space and Kratos Defense and Security Solutions entered into a partnership to equip the Kratos XQ-58A Valkyrie uncrewed collaborative combat aircraft (UCCA) with a German-developed mission system for future deployment with the German Air Force, the companies announced in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>The XQ-58A is a low-observable, rail-launched drone capable of operating independently or in coordination with crewed aircraft, the statement reads. It is designed to deliver kinetic and non-kinetic effects and has a maximum takeoff weight of three tons, with a range of up to 3,000 miles and flight ceiling of 45,000 feet.<\/p>\n<p>According to the companies, Airbus will supply a mission system with a platform-agnostic architecture intended to support integration across both current and future manned-unmanned teaming platforms.<\/p>\n<p>The joint effort aims to deliver a European-configured variant of the Valkyrie by 2029, with the system intended to meet growing demand for collaborative combat aircraft in NATO-aligned countries, the statement reads.<\/p>\n<p>\n        Featured Companies\n        <\/p>\n<p>                                <a href=\"https:\/\/militaryembedded.com\/company\/airbus-defence-and-space\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1582229768.png\" class=\"img-fluid\"\/><br \/>\n                <\/a><\/p>\n<p>                                <a href=\"https:\/\/militaryembedded.com\/company\/kratos-defense\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1582737790.png\" class=\"img-fluid\"\/><br \/>\n                <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"News July 17, 2025 Dan Taylor Technology Editor Military Embedded Systems Image via Airbus MUNICH, Germany.
