ST Engineering’s Highlights at Singapore Airshow 2026
Aviation Showcase
- DrN-600, co-developed with U.S.-based partner, AIR Inc., is the Group’s first medium-lift cargo unmanned aircraft system (UAS) designed to address key barriers to large-scale UAS commercialisation, including technology robustness and unit economics. With a maximum take-off mass of under 600 kg and range of over 70 km, it is capable of carrying up to 100 kg in a versatile cargo compartment that supports various standard pallet sizes.
The DrN-600 is engineered to balance performance with regulatory readiness, building on operational experience accumulated since 2018 through smaller UAS platforms. Certification of the DrN-600 is targeted for completion by 2028, while operational trials with the prototype systems will be conducted in parallel to gather customer feedback.
- Business Aviation Thrust Reverser uses hinged (pivoting) doors to redirect engine exhaust airflow forward during landing, helping the aircraft decelerate and reduce brake wear.
