That was what i expected at the first landing, kudos to the guy who designed the gears and suspension, eventhough it has landed rather harshly (like marine fighters do), it didn't bounce back. We won't know the limit until the nose landing gear breaks apart
.I see no reason for them not to make a modular arrest gears and minimize this landing to 10-20 meters just after the aft elevator. The UAV aims far after the elevator and right side of the island for landing in most of the times likely to avoid wake of the island.
the drone has to approach the ship with more speed in rough weather, right? I'd like to see these trials evolve to be tested in adverse conditions and see how it performs.That was what i expected at the first landing, kudos to the guy who designed the gears and suspension, eventhough it has landed rather harshly (like marine fighters do), it didn't bounce back.

It landed while its flir was retracted. So This Video is proof that it indeed can land with its flir unlike some other peoples have claimed.
