Autonomous Aerial Defense

DETECT.
INTERCEPT.
RETURN.

Reusable autonomous counter-drone platform. VTOL launch, fixed-wing pursuit, autonomous intercept — then back to base for reload.

THE DRONE
THREAT IS REAL

01
Fragmented Systems

Existing C-UAS solutions rely on siloed sensors — radars, RF jammers, optical trackers — that don't communicate. Operators must manually correlate data, creating dangerous latency windows.

02
Single-Use Economics

Current kinetic interceptors destroy themselves on every engagement. At $10,000–$500,000 per intercept, scalable deployment is economically impossible for most operators.

03
Speed Mismatch

Commercial drones travel at 60–100+ km/h. Slow multirotor interceptors cannot close the gap. Fixed infrastructure creates chokepoints. The threat moves; the defense does not.

04
No Scalable Architecture

Proprietary monolithic hardware is expensive to procure and impossible to adapt. No current solution offers a software-defined architecture that evolves with the threat without hardware replacement.

ONE PLATFORM.
FULL KILL CHAIN.

01
Ground Cuing

Ground station detects and classifies the threat. Launch command issued autonomously. No crew required.

02
VTOL Launch

Interceptor lifts off vertically. No runway, no catapult. Deployable from any ground position in under 60 seconds.

03
Fixed-Wing Pursuit

Transitions to fixed-wing cruise mode mid-air. Higher speed and endurance than multirotor-only interceptors. Closes the gap.

04
ISR Lock & Intercept

Onboard AI locks the target optically. Autonomous terminal guidance. Engagement payload deployed at intercept point.

05
Return to Base

Interceptor returns autonomously for reload and redeployment. Reusable airframe eliminates per-engagement cost.

BUILT ON
EDGE AI

Hailo Edge AI

Onboard neural processing unit. Real-time visual threat classification. Fully offline — no cloud dependency.

VTOL Transition

X-wing airframe. Multirotor for launch and recovery. Fixed-wing for high-speed pursuit. One platform, two flight modes.

Optical ISR Lock

Camera-based target acquisition and tracking. AI-guided terminal intercept guidance without GPS dependency.

ArduPilot / MAVLink

Open, battle-tested flight control stack. Custom autonomy layers built on top. OTA-upgradeable mission profiles.

Reusable Airframe

Engagement payload is separate from the platform. Interceptor returns post-engagement. Reload and redeploy cycle designed for field conditions.

Dual Comms Stack

4G LTE primary with LoRa fallback. Encrypted VPN tunnel. Operates in degraded communication environments.
