AUVSI 2014: Bofors Test Center - The Sky is the Limit.

Located midway between Oslo and Stockholm, Bofors Test Center (BTC) provides a cost-efficient test environment for small and medium sized UAS.


BTC can arrange demonstrations and support development testing and training courses for both qualified and unqualified systems. It is fully authorised by the Swedish authorities to test unmanned systems. Furthermore, BTC will arrange all the permits and approvals required for their customers specific missions.
Since BTC’s core business is the testing of weapon systems and ammunition, the test centre can easily combine this with their deep knowledge of UAS and provide advanced target drones for ground-to-air defence systems.


Comprehensive facilities include: 200sqkm of restricted land; 30,000ft of restricted airspace; well-equipped workshops; close proximity to airports and hotels; and an extensive infrastructure with open jet wind tunnel; environmental test laboratory; optical Tracking System; telemetry; and helicopter service for surveillance, tracking and transport.


Bofors Test Center is the cutting-edge test facility of today, always ready to open up the skies for the investment of their customer.
