Coastal Surveillance

Maritime patrols with long-range VTOL for vessel detection and coordination of search and rescue operations

Operational capabilities

Solutions for maritime surveillance

  • 01

    Autonomous maritime patrols

    Programmed coastal coverage flights with 180-minute endurance, 18 km range with Kite VTOL (extendable up to 150 km with Apus) and the capability to cover areas difficult to access from shore

  • 02

    Vessel detection

    Automatic identification of ships and small craft via artificial intelligence, vessel type classification and continuous target tracking

  • 03

    Onboard AI for maritime detection

    Analysis of routes with anomalous course changes, behaviour pattern classification via AI and automatic alerts for at-risk vessels or illicit activity

  • 04

    SAR coordination

    Real-time relay of GPS coordinates of vessels in distress, vectoring of rescue resources and operational documentation for subsequent investigations

Mission parameters
Operational
Platform Kite VTOL V1
Operational altitude Up to 1,000 m AGL
Area coverage ~400 km² per mission
Primary sensor 4K EO + FLIR (optional)
Detection range 18 km (data link)
Environmental resistance 19 m/s (68 km/h)
Communications link LOS · 18 km from station
Certification EASA · CE

* LOS (Line of Sight): the drone operates within direct line of sight of the ground control station, with no obstacles between them. The data link has an operational range of up to 18 km from the base station, which defines the maximum mission radius. Beyond that range, real-time communication with the aircraft is lost.
