Another delivery took place in 2017.

PIAP Fenix® light reconnaissance robotic platform also enjoyed a lot of interest during the event in Asia. It has already been proven in the Polish military. The manufacturer places a great emphasis on the fact that most of the IndoDefence 2018 visitors are the end users, serving in the Indonesian uniformed services.
