The Falcus Designs M190 Striker is a Unmanned combat aerial vehicle developed off of the MX90 Unmaned Drone Test Platform, which was a test platform developed jointly by Orun Redisus and Sante Reze for various military and civilian applications. It is the first unmanned high-endurance high-altitude surveillance aircraft deployed by the Royal Redisan Armed Forces. The aircraft is designed to participate in a wide range of offensive, defensive, and reconnaissance missions thanks to its use of the Modular Aircraft Equipment System. It comes equipped with a 950-shaft-horsepower (712 kW) turboprop engine and is controlled by a ground crew operator. The aircraft can make use of aircraft carrier decks as well as short and poorly prepared runways for take-off and landing thanks to its compact design and powerful engine. The unit is utilized by all branches of the armed forces as well as multiple civilian and police uses. Most notably, the M190 is the mainstay of the National Ranger Service where it patrols national parks and reserves to protect against illegal activities.
