THE DRONE INDUSTRY IN GALICIA.

By Pablo Rodeiro Rañales.

 

The Rozas Aerodrome is a private aerodrome in the municipality of Castro de Rey, about eight kilometres from the town of Lugo in the north of Galicia, Spain.

It was opened on 4th June, 1943. It is generally intended for sports aviation. The ground where it's installed belongs to the Ministry of Defence, but the airdrome is managed by the Royal Flying Club in Lugo.

The aerodrome was built by the Germans during the Second World War, with the purpose of providing quick maintenance to the antennas of the radio beacon Consol.

Once the battle was finished, the airdrome was recognized as an exceptional place for the creation of a larger airport. It was an airbase for some time, where there was a military garrison for aviation troops. In 1949, Rozas Aerodrome became the Central Airport in Galicia and it kept this status for 2 years , while the Santiago de Compostela airport was being built.

Romanians have many qualities including ingenuity. Maybe not many people know, but over time they had a lot of brilliant ideas that changed the word. One of the newest is at Land Forces Academy in Sibiu. It is about some robots which would be very helpful in various missions for soldiers, would make their job easier, even save their life. These robots are able to detect and destroy the explosives. One of the two finds the potential explosive; the other takes it and brings it to the demining area, where an explosion occurs to form the displacement lane.
