Safran

Products: uas, autonomy-software. Risk band: Low   RobotRisk index 8.8/100 (severity- and time-weighted incidents) · ranked 16 of 16 among Defense / space companies with incidents (123 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. Safran's index of 8.8 ranks 16 of 16 companies in Defense / space with incident history. The record is press-driven, tied to a specific platform malfunction, with no regulatory action indicated.
