TIMES OF DEFENCE ASSESSMENT
The showcase of the GHAZI EN50 and SALAAR EV30 UAVs by DSS Aerospace at Milipol Qatar 2026 underscores the growing demand for scalable, multi-tier unmanned systems in homeland security and asymmetric warfare. Modern security forces require aerial assets capable of bridging the operational gap between tactical quadcopters and heavy strategic MALE platforms.
From an engineering perspective, combining a dedicated fixed-wing reconnaissance asset like the GHAZI EN50 with a flexible eVTOL platform like the SALAAR EV30 allows operators to deploy layered aerial surveillance. The eVTOL capability of the SALAAR EV30 eliminates the need for pneumatic catapults or paved runways, making it highly valuable for dismounted special forces, border patrol outposts, and naval patrol vessels operating in restricted littoral zones.
