Google translate from the original article

During his visit to Naval Base Alfeite, José Pedro Aguiar-Branco - accompanied by the Chief of Staff of the Navy, Admiral Macieira Fragoso - Aguiar-Branco attended the presentation of the drone and predicted that the device "will be highly effective in missions the Navy has to fulfill. "

Maybe its amphibious

Maybe its amphibious

Or........ (sub) amphibious.......

The scary part is.. The USA probably gave it to them and we get to pay for it....

Note to Portuguese Air Force:

Push forward on the stick, the houses get bigger...
Pull back on the stick, the houses get smaller...
Keep pulling back on the stick, the houses get bigger again...

Looks like a submarine drone with wings.

I would like to see more of the video, a little leading up to the "launch" and a minute or so after the "boo-boo"
