With regard to air systems, Caldis is displaying a model of the “Badr-250” light attack aircraft, which represents one of the most prominent achievements of the national aviation industry and combines operational efficiency and flexibility in carrying out close air support missions, in addition to a model of the “B-250T” training aircraft, which serves as an advanced platform for preparing and qualifying pilots according to the latest standards.

The most prominent exhibits also include advanced models of “Al Haddah” missiles, which are advanced missile systems that provide high targeting accuracy and advanced operational efficiency, thus enhancing the readiness of the forces and their ability to deal with various threats.

The group’s participation in the event is not limited to displaying products only, but rather represents a strategic message confirming the ability of Emirati cadres and competencies to develop defense systems that match the highest international standards and meet the requirements of modern fields of operations with high efficiency and reliability.
