Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, on Tuesday visited Abu Dhabi's Unmanned Systems Exhibition and Conference (Umex).
Sheikh Mohamed visited several stands that were showcasing some of the most advanced drone technology in the world.
About 160 companies from 63 countries are displaying their products at Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre.
“Today I visited the Umex and Simtex exhibitions in Abu Dhabi and was briefed on the latest innovations in unmanned systems technology, robotics and AI for the civil and defence sectors,” said Sheikh Mohamed on social media.
The UAE's Ministry of Defence signed three deals worth more than Dh966 million on the second day of the conference.
On the first day, three deals were signed worth more than Dh650m.
Among the main exhibitors is Abu Dhabi-based Edge, a conglomerate of two dozen defence companies.

So what is Spicy Chickenjoy?
Just as McDonald’s has the Big Mac, Jollibee has Spicy Chickenjoy – a piece of fried chicken that’s crispy and spicy on the outside and comes with a side of spaghetti, all covered in tomato sauce and topped with sausage slices and ground beef. It sounds like a recipe that a child would come up with, but perhaps that’s the point – a flavourbomb combination of cheap comfort foods. Chickenjoy is Jollibee’s best-selling product in every country in which it has a presence.
How it works
Each player begins with one of the great empires of history, from Julius Caesar's Rome to Ramses of Egypt, spread over Europe and the Middle East.
Round by round, the player expands their empire. The more land they have, the more money they can take from their coffers for each go.
As unruled land and soldiers are acquired, players must feed them. When a player comes up against land held by another army, they can choose to battle for supremacy.
A dice-based battle system is used and players can get the edge on their enemy with by deploying a renowned hero on the battlefield.
Players that lose battles and land will find their coffers dwindle and troops go hungry. The end goal? Global domination of course.
