ZALA Aero will present the export version of the Lancet-E reconnaissance and strike complex for the first time at the DSA 2026 international exhibition in Malaysia. In early 2026, the system was authorized for overseas deliveries.
The complex includes the Z-16E reconnaissance drone with machine vision elements and the Izdelie 51E and Izdelie 52E loitering munitions. The company will also present a new disposable launcher for launching drones.
ZALA recalled that the Lancet-E complex was created as a combination of reconnaissance and target engagement in a single loop. The Zala Z-16 drone detects an object and transmits coordinates, after which a loitering munition strikes.
The DSA 2026 exhibition will be held in Kuala Lumpur from April 20 to 23, 2026.
Earlier, ZALA improved the combat capabilities of Z-16 reconnaissance drones by integrating artificial intelligence directly on board.
