Airbus press release

Airbus Helicopters has unveiled HTeaming, its brand new modular crewed-uncrewed teaming solution. HTeaming is a range of systems that allows helicopter crews to take full control of Uncrewed Aerial Systems (UAS) in flight. 

The first version of HTeaming can be used as a standalone solution or integrated into a helicopter mission system. 

The system has already been tested in flight, including in May 2025 with a Spanish Navy H135 helicopter and an Airbus Flexrotor UAS. More flight trials involving other types of platforms are planned in the upcoming months. 

“Buildling on our experience as both a helicopter and UAS manufacturer and our extensive know-how as system integrators, we are  offering a system that is both modular and agnostic,” said Victor Gerin Roze, Head of UAS at Airbus Helicopters. “HTeaming is a solution that has been developed to be easily integrated on any type of helicopter and to take control of any type of UAS, it will be available for helicopter operators from 2026,” he added. “We believe that UAS are force multipliers for helicopters. Using the sensors and effectors of uncrewed systems, rotorcraft crews will be able to conduct their missions more efficiently and in a safer way.”
