The HYDRA-400 ultra heavy-lift drone, developed by Hybrid Drones in the UK, successfully completed its first flight. It can lift up to 400 kg and is designed for roles including casualty evacuation and logistics support.

The British Army and NATO partners have shown interest in its capabilities as a low-cost alternative to helicopters. The drone is transportable via flatbed truck and can be quickly assembled for deployment, enabling operations without a runway.
