On 7 November, the company announced it had signed new contracts for the delivery of 1,000 new Warmate 3 loitering munitions to non-European armed forces.
The Warmate 3 can carry up to a 3 kg warhead and has the capability to engage targets at distances exceeding 80 km, the WB Group representative told

The Warmate 3 has a cruising speed of around 90 km/h, an operational altitude of 1,000 m above ground level (AGL), a radio range of 100 km radio line of sight (RLOS), and a maximum altitude of 3,500 m above mean sea level (AMSL).
The Warmate 3 can be equipped with one of the following warhead types –
