Israel becomes the first-ever country to allow drones in civilian airspace.
The Elbit defence contractor's StarLiner drone has been certified by the Israel Transportation Ministry to fly in civilian airspace.
Elbit's StarLiner drone is a modified version of the company's Hermes 900 drone, which is in use by militaries all around the world.
The StarLiner drone was modified to comply with civil aviation requirements by installing sensors to identify other aircraft and avoid collisions with them, an additional warning system to prevent it from approaching or crashing into the ground, autonomous takeoff and landing systems in low-visibility conditions, and other changes.
