ST Engineering Eyes Longer-Range DrN-600 Cargo Drone With Hybrid Propulsion

Singapore’s ST Engineering has partnered with California firm Odys Aviation to build a propulsion system for the DrN-600 medium-lift unmanned aerial system (UAS).

Under a memorandum of understanding, the companies will work toward a definitive agreement that would see Odys design, prototype, and mass-produce the propulsion system for the 600-kilogram (1,323-pound) cargo drone.

Initial activities will focus on validating the propulsion system’s technical specifications, performance, end-to-end cost, and development roadmap before moving toward production.
