EOS Technologie has released new footage showing the automatic strike test of its Veloce 330 and Rodeur 330 loitering munitions.
Filmed in the presence of the French Defense Innovation Agency (AID) and representatives of the French Armed Forces, the demonstration marks the latest step in France’s push to evaluate domestically developed anti-armor effectors.
The video showcases the progression from earlier manual strike trials conducted in June 2025, when EOS performed a first-person-view (FPV) guided engagement against an inflatable tank target.
A November 2025 demonstration shifted to a fully automatic strike sequence, with the munition navigating, identifying, and executing its terminal approach without direct operator control, according to EOS. An inert training warhead supplied by KNDS was used during the test.
High-speed Veloce 330 and long-endurance Rodeur 330
Veloce 330 and Rodeur 330 form a complementary pair of loitering munitions positioned by EOS for anti-armor roles.
Veloce 330 is designed as a high-speed effector, reaching approximately 400 kilometers per hour (249 miles per hour) with a range of around 100 kilometers (62 miles). EOS says the platform is capable of silent flight with its engine off at altitudes above 50 meters (164 feet) due to its glide performance. The system supports GPS-guided and video-guided strikes and includes a remote arming and disarming function for its warhead.
Rodeur 330 focuses on endurance, with a claimed five-hour flight time and a range of 500 kilometers (311 miles). It integrates vision-based navigation for use in GPS-denied or spoofed environments and can be deployed in automatic mode. EOS also highlights that Rodeur can be recovered by parachute during training. A swarm-flight function enabling up to 30 Rodeur drones to be controlled simultaneously from a single ground station is also under development, according to the company.
New capabilities and next steps
EOS reports that both systems have completed GPS and automatic guided strike tests. The company says it is preparing a capability for intercepting Shahed-type drones, planned for early 2026, positioning the munition family for both offensive and defensive applications.
The testing aligns with the LARINAE program, France’s effort to develop a family of unmanned strike and reconnaissance systems aimed at strengthening short- and medium-range precision-strike capabilities.
Separately, France has also taken part in a test campaign alongside NATO and Ukraine, examining new methods to counter Russian glide-bomb attacks.
Other European actors are moving in the same direction. Earlier in November 2025, Helsing released footage of automatic and semi-autonomous field trials for its HX-2 system across several countries.
