Unmanned EC155B1 flew June 2008

Just saw this on AIrbus Helicopters FB page that deaced ago to the day, then Eurocopter flew unmanned EC155B1.

Cannot remember which publication I read it, but the unmanned 155 was part of a classified French MoD project.
cheers

The photo shows it is clearly manned so I’m assuming he was a ‘hands off’ Safety pilot and it was remotely piloted. Or, it’s a stock photo of the aircraft, which was also used as a test bed for lots of other projects.

Unmanned 155

Maybe it was two girls on the bridge, hence unmanned?
