Keep - While the article is very spammy and reads like it was written by the manufacturer's PR department, the cited refs do establish notability. The one cited
Wall Street Journal ref does not mention the Scout and the
Globe and Mail ref is no longer available, but the
CNet and
CBC articles cited discuss the Scout and do establish notability. There are probably paper refs available on the subject too, such as Janes All The World's Aircraft. It does need a complete re-write however.-

Keep. The article seems to feature a bunch of dead links, but there does seem to be coverage of the thing on the web, including coverage of its use by various governmental agencies. As per Ahunt, this should be a candidate for major rewrite, rather than deletion. —

Keep For some reason this thing looks awfully familiar, but as noted the concern is promotion; this calls for cleanup, not deletion, and
AfD is not for cleanup. -
