U.K. defense giant BAE Systems Plc has joined forces with Embraer SA to explore the potential for developing a military version of the Brazilian planemaker’s Eve flying taxi.

The study will weigh the viability of using the electric vertical take-off and landing craft in roles such as surveillance and transporting military personnel, as well as performing disaster-relief and humanitarian missions, London-based BAE said in a statement Tuesday.
