Updated V-Bat received heavy fuel engine, which increases its flight duration by more than 13 hours. The drone can be deployed on almost any class of US Navy ships in all seven naval expedition units. UAVs still do not require a runway or catapult, and its design allows to land on moving ships, roofs and limited spaces even in a strong wind and a restless sea. In addition, V-Bat can now make a vertical take-off and planting completely autonomously, without the help of the operator.
The integration of Satcom satellite communications enables operators to drive a drone anywhere in the world, not just nearby, using the command-tape (C2) Beyond-Line-Off-Sight (BLOS). The V-Bat can also integrate several useful loads, including passive broadband visualization with Vidar support, synthesized aperture radar (SAR) and radio-electronic warfare.
"The most distant military is changing their larger and more expensive reconnaissance and observation planes (ISR), which are too vulnerable to their cost, and perform the same tasks with the help of smaller and more accessible drones such as V-Bat,"-said the president and co-founder of SHELD AI Brandon.
