Bundeswehr FALKE (Quantum Systems Vector-based reconnaissance UAS) order per German government document reviewed by Bloomberg (Bundestag 25-million-euro submission, Dec 2025): EUR 210 million ($246M) for 520 Falke systems for 2026 delivery, options for 500 more 2027-2032. Arithmetic: EUR 210,000,000 / 520 = EUR 403,846 per system; $246,000,000 / 520 = $473,077. A Falke 'system' typically comprises more than one air vehicle plus ground segment; scope of support/training not stated. Supersedes the approximate hartpunkt figures noted as a prior dead end.
