Key Takeaways:

Airbus unveiled two new uncrewed aircraft at the ILA Berlin Air Show: the U145, an autonomous variant of its H145 helicopter, and the U760 Ravenstorm uncrewed collaborative combat aircraft (UCCA).
The U145 is designed for diverse civil and military applications, including cargo transport, disaster response, surveillance, and potentially serving as a "drone mothership" for missile launches.
The U760 Ravenstorm is a new UCCA developed to team with crewed fighter jets for missions such as air-to-ground strikes, air-to-air missile launches, and electronic warfare.
Both new uncrewed platforms are slated for test flights soon and are expected to enter service in the early 2030s, expanding Airbus's portfolio of autonomous and collaborative aerial systems.

Two new uncrewed aircraft are on display at Airbus’ corner of the ILA Berlin Air Show in Germany this week.

Airbus earlier this week said its booth at the air show would introduce the U145—an autonomous, uncrewed variant of its H145 helicopter. Joining the full-scale U145 mockup at ILA Berlin is a 1:1 scale model of the manufacturer’s U760 Ravenstorm, revealed Tuesday as the “next evolution” in its family of uncrewed collaborative combat aircraft (UCCA).
