The contract will be completed before the end of 2022 and the RTN will deploy the CAMCOPTER® S-100 systems for land and sea-based Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) operations. Schiebel won its first contract with the RTN in 2019 and those helicopters are fully operational in Thailand.

The Schiebel Camcopter S-100 is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) using a rotorcraft design.

With a maximum take-off weight (MTOW) of 200 kilograms (440 lb), its endurance is 6 hours (extendable to over 10 hours with optional external AVGAS fuel tanks fitted). It has a maximum speed of 220 kilometres per hour (140 mph) and a ceiling of 5,500 metres (18,000 ft).

It is powered by a 55 horsepower (41 kW) Diamond engine and is able to carry multiple sensors, enabling customers to gather images with an EO/IR camera, detect and identify electronic signatures with ESM systems and use SAR radar simultaneously in real-time with only one system.
