Inzpire has successfully delivered the first Central Flying School (CFS)-endorsed Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS) operator training course for the British Army at the Royal School of Artillery. This milestone, achieved under the TIQUILA programme, signifies a deliberate shift from initial fielding to a structured, formalised training framework for uncrewed systems.
The course provides conversion-to-type qualification on the Stalker VXE30 UAS (EAGLE), specifically designed for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) operations. The training was supported by a Lockheed Martin UK-led framework, reinforcing the professionalisation of UAS operators and the deeper integration of uncrewed technologies into core artillery training.
This development represents a critical evolution in military UAS capability. For B2B suppliers and defence contractors, this means:
According to industry analysts, the formalisation of RPAS training pipelines often precedes broader procurement cycles, signalling potential near-term requirements for additional airframes, ground control stations, and mission payloads. The TIQUILA programme's structured approach may also serve as a model for other NATO allies modernising their UAS training frameworks.
This training milestone highlights the growing importance of structured UAS operations in defense. For B2B solution providers, supporting such programs requires adaptable, reliable power systems.
