Safran
Robot types: Uas, Autonomy stack. Risk band: Low RobotRisk index 8.6/100 (severity- and time-weighted incidents) · ranked 3 of 3 among Defense / space companies with incidents (310 tracked).
Analyst brief
The record for Safran consists of a single entry: a December 2019 crash of a Patroller unmanned aerial system, followed by corrective work reported in February 2020. One event with a moderate severity rating of 3 does not establish a pattern; the record reflects an isolated airframe/system failure rather than a recurring defect class. The record is press-driven, tied to a specific platform malfunction, with no regulatory action indicated.
