The article from The Straits Times discusses how a Singapore-developed unmanned aircraft, known as the SkyKnight, has won a prestigious defence technology prize. Developed by a team from the Defence Science and Technology Agency (DSTA) and ST Engineering, the SkyKnight is designed for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions. It features advanced capabilities like vertical take-off and landing, which allows it to operate from confined spaces, and can be controlled remotely or autonomously. The aircraft's design focuses on modularity, enabling it to be quickly adapted for various mission profiles. The prize, awarded at the Singapore Defence Technology Summit, recognizes the innovation in enhancing the operational capabilities of the Singapore Armed Forces through this unmanned system.
