Innovative BVLOS Long-Range Drone Capabilities
The Thales UAS100 long-range drone showcases Thales' extensive aerospace technology expertise to provide optimal solutions for a wide range of applications. From coastal and border surveillance to law enforcement security, linear infrastructure inspections, windmill monitoring, offshore wind turbine checks, and pipeline surveys, the UAS100 emerges as a top-tier choice. This advanced drone is designed to meet the most demanding mission requirements while adhering to general aviation regulations for beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations. Its flight avionics merge certified flight safety and security standards from traditional aviation with a lightweight, compact form factor essential for integration onto small drones.
Versatile Applications of UAS100
The UAS100 excels in conducting long-range BVLOS operations, making it ideal for various tasks such as inspection, surveillance, and reconnaissance. Offering a game-changing eye-in-the-sky capability, this drone significantly reduces human workload, cuts down life cycle costs, and saves precious time. As a security UAV, the UAS100 serves as an ideal alternative for surveillance missions like border patrol and coastal monitoring, often replacing more complex and expensive aircraft such as helicopters or fixed-wing planes.
Driving Ecological Transition and Sustainability
The UAS100 contributes significantly to the global ecological transition by aiding in the fight against climate change. With a focus on reducing fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, Thales is dedicated to creating more sustainable solutions for the future. Drones play a crucial role in preserving sensitive environments like forests, national parks, and supporting wildlife monitoring efforts in often hard-to-reach or vast areas.
Enhanced Safety Features for Long-Range Operations
Featuring a hybrid propulsion system, the UAS100 can cover distances of up to 200 kilometers with discretion, minimal carbon footprint, and resilience to failures. Equipped with jam-resistant navigation systems, this drone ensures safe operations even in densely cluttered electromagnetic environments. Boasting two electric motors and an internal combustion engine, the UAS100 operates seamlessly over populated regions, delivering the necessary endurance and robustness to handle potential failures.
Multi-Payload Capacity and Portfolio
Thales's UAS100 drone is equipped for multi-payload missions, supporting payloads like optronic turrets, day/night vision systems, thermal cameras, communication relays, RADAR, LIDAR, gas sensors, trunks, or additional fuel tanks. With a diverse portfolio that caters to various mission types, the UAS100 ensures reliability and efficiency for operations requiring extended range, high autonomy, and autonomous decision-making capabilities.
Ground Control Station Advancements
The UAS100 is complemented by an advanced ground control station that streamlines operations, reduces crew mobilization, and enhances monitoring capabilities. With real-time information updates, automatic safety checks, and cyber-secured mission preparation platforms like ScaleFlyt, Thales ensures reliable, secure, and efficient operations for long-scale drone missions. Through features like optimized route creation, compliance checks, direct UTM/ATM connections, and live mission data monitoring, the ground control station significantly simplifies flight operations, making it safer and more effective.
