        "summary": "The HY-100 heavy-class cargo drone, developed by Ursa Aeronautical Technology Co., Ltd., has obtained validation certification from Indonesia's Directorate of Airworthiness and Aircraft Operations under the Ministry of Transportation, marking a significant advancement in integrating unmanned aerial systems into the national aviation ecosystem. With a maximum take-off weight of 5.25 tonnes and a payload capacity of up to 1.9 tonnes, the drone can fly up to 1,800 kilometres for over 10 hours, making it ideal for logistics distribution in remote and archipelago regions, including 3T areas. PT Ursa Aero Indonesia plans to build a dedicated 43-hectare UAS airport in Simpenan, Sukabumi, to further support the development of unmanned air logistics infrastructure.",
        "content": "<p>Unmanned aircraft technology is beginning to enter the national\nlogistics sector to address distribution challenges in archipelago\nregions. The heavy-class cargo drone HY-100 now holds validation\ncertification in Indonesia.<\/p>\n<p>The unmanned aerial system (UAS) Hongyan HY-100, developed by Ursa\nAeronautical Technology Co., Ltd., has undergone Type Certificate\nvalidation by the Directorate of Airworthiness and Aircraft Operations\n(DKPPU) of the Ministry of Transportation.<\/p>\n<p>Deputy Director of Aircraft Operations at DKPPU, Capt.\u00a0Reymon Palapa,\nstated that the validation was conducted to ensure that heavy-class UAS\ntechnology can be operated safely in accordance with national\nstandards.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis validation is an important step in ensuring that heavy-class\nUAS technology can be integrated into the national aviation ecosystem\nwithout neglecting safety aspects,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The HY-100 has a maximum take-off weight of 5.25 tonnes with a\npayload capacity of up to 1.9 tonnes. The aircraft is capable of flying\nup to 1,800 kilometres with an operational duration of more than 10\nhours.<\/p>\n<p>Its ability to take off from short runways makes the aircraft\nsuitable for serving pioneer routes and logistics distribution in remote\nareas.<\/p>\n<p>Country Director of PT Ursa Aero Indonesia, Tendi Febrian, said that\nthis technology is aimed at accelerating goods distribution in 3T\nregions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe HY-100 is not just an unmanned aircraft, but an air\ninfrastructure solution. With this certification, we are bringing high\nsafety standards to support more efficient logistics distribution in\nIndonesia\u2019s 3T regions,\u201d Tendi stated.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to logistics, UAS utilisation is also being developed for\nthe agriculture sector, disaster management, and area surveillance.<\/p>\n<p>PT Ursa Aero Indonesia is also preparing to build a dedicated UAS\nairport in Simpenan, Sukabumi, covering 43 hectares. This infrastructure\nis intended to support the operations and development of the unmanned\nair logistics ecosystem in Indonesia.<\/p>",
