6. After the military products in question were structurally modified, were the target drones’ carrying weight or volume increased or modified during test flights?
The carrying weight and volume of the TRX-4A targets are materially greater than that of the RF tow targets procured by ROCAF. The result is that the entire drone has a greater carrying weight and volume. The greater weight and volume affected the aerodynamic properties of the drone, which in turn affected the drone’s take off and the release of the tow target during flight. These effects required modifications to the control and command parameters and the wiring of the drone.
