Eurosatory 2026: Schiebel’s frigate-first strategy indicates a shift in UAV competition
Speaking to Shephard at Eurosatory 2026, Schiebel outlined ambitions spanning the UK Ministry of Defence’s (MoD) Project Nyx programme, a new French Army requirement and further naval expansion linked to the success of the Camcopter S-100 aboard Naval Group’s Frégate de Défense et d’Intervention (FDI) frigates.
UK and French programmes offer opportunities
Alongside continued international sales of its Camcopter S-100, Schiebel is attempting to establish its larger S-300 rotary-wing uncrewed air system in several emerging competitions.
The company confirmed it had been selected for the next phase of the British Army’s Project Nyx programme alongside partner Thales.
Project Nyx is part of the British Army’s Land Autonomous Collaborative Platform (LACP) programme, which aims to develop a highly autonomous, sovereign system to be paired with crewed Apache AH-64E systems, Shephard Defence Insight highlights.
“Now in the UK you’ve got a thing called Project Nyx,” Neil Hunter, global head of sales, told Shephard. “It’s a British Army loyal wingman concept. So we teamed with Thales, so we’re now chasing Project Nyx in the UK.”
According to the UK MoD, Project Nyx aims to develop drones capable of accompanying British Army helicopters on missions including reconnaissance, surveillance, strike, target acquisition and electronic warfare, operating on a “command rather than control” basis using increasing levels of autonomy.
Shephard forecasts that a procurement programme worth US$205 million could be awarded in 2028, following the development of the system through Project Nyx.
France has emerged as another target market. Schiebel is pursuing the French Army’s ADAPT requirement, which could be argued as a successor to the cancelled Patroller programme.
The company is again partnering with Thales. “We’re obviously trying to create leverage in that area,” Hunter said. “Why not look at a rotary? Teaming with Thales, more the French side, because of course to win contracts here in France, you have to be as French as you possibly can.”
The opportunities are notable because they would provide early reference customers for the S-300, which is currently undergoing an extensive test and evaluation campaign ahead of deliveries to South Korea.
“We’re on track to deliver three aircraft by the end of the year,” Hunter said. “There’s an awful lot of overlap between the S-100 and the S-300, which gives us lots of maturity and confidence.”
The company also disclosed it was pursuing a further S-300 opportunity with an unnamed NATO customer.
“There’s one NATO country, and we’re sort of going, let’s get you over the line,” Hunter noted.
FDI frigates create a naval pathway
While the S-300 offers future growth potential, the S-100 remains Schiebel’s principal revenue generator.
One of the most significant recent successes came in Greece, where the Hellenic Navy selected the Camcopter S-100 for operation from its FDI frigates. The contract represented Schiebel’s 50th customer for the S-100 programme.
“The Greek Navy was our 50th customer in 20 years,” Hunter said. “The initial contract with them is to deliver four systems.”
Schiebel previously revealed that the Hellenic Navy’s FDI frigates were pre-fitted for Camcopter S-100 integration.
The company worked directly with Naval Group during ship construction to optimise the placement of antennas and mission-system components.
“For the Greek Navy FDIs, we actually worked with Naval Group while they were building those ships in the first place,” Hunter explained. “We had discussions with them about where it was best placed to put the antennas.”
Naval Group has secured FDI orders from France and Greece and recently achieved another export breakthrough with Sweden’s selection of the platform.
Although Schiebel faces competition in Sweden from domestic supplier UMS Skeldar, the company acknowledged it is actively promoting the S-100 as a lower-risk and more mature solution.
“As you would expect, we are lobbying into Sweden,” Hunter said. “We’re giving the Swedes all the reasons why we’re a much less risky solution, a mature solution.”
Estonia was cited as one example, with shipbuilding teams exploring potential Camcopter integration options as future naval procurement plans develop.
