The BAE Systems Ampersand is an unmanned autonomous system built as an unmanned autogyro technology demonstrator. It was first announced at the 2008 Farnborough International Air Show. The aircraft is based on the RotorSport UK MT-03 autogyro and carries a sensor suite derived from the one on the BAE Herti unmanned aircraft, so it reuses an existing light rotorcraft airframe and an existing reconnaissance payload rather than a purpose-built design. For flight test purposes it can also be flown with a pilot on board. Related BAE Systems unmanned projects named alongside it in the same source are the Corax, GA22, Herti, Mantis and Taranis.
