EMT Aladin

EMT Aladin (German: Abbildende Luftgestützte Aufklärungsdrohne im Nächstbereich, airborne reconnaissance drone for close area imaging) is a small, man-portable light reconnaissance miniature unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) employed by the Bundeswehr (German Army).

The UAV can be radio-controlled via a portable control station, or fly according to previously set GPS coordinates.

[citation needed] This UAV is used by the German Army in the northern part of Afghanistan.

In May 2006, The Netherlands bought 10 Aladins for use in southern Afghanistan (Uruzgan), though in 2008 the Dutch program procured 24 systems of the AeroVironment Raven B.
