Construction of an experimental sample of Champed by France.
The French Ministry of the Armed Forces has begun production of a prototype of the UCUV combat air defense system.
The idea of equipping the French Navy with Champades was proposed several years ago and it was also mentioned in the reference document for the military innovation direction of this country in 2022. At the time, France's military innovation agency sought to begin studies to develop an amphibious ocean-going vehicle with high operational endurance that could be deployed and retrieved from surface vessels.
