SPIRIT IS A DEPENDABLE, ALL-WEATHER, HIGH-PERFORMANCE UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE DESIGNED AND BUILT IN THE USA
Beginning immediately, any U.S. government customer can buy and operate a Spirit without further technical review or approval.
Enterprise level operations require solutions that are practical in the field. Spirit is compact and modular to support a growing ecosystem of easily swappable payloads and technology upgrades so it’s easy to bring what’s needed, where it’s needed, when it’s needed. No more high-stakes tradeoffs that compromise capability against bulky, heavy equipment. Setup is quick and easy, allowing for takeoff from any type of terrain.
Spirit’s rugged, all-weather airframe is protected against contamination so it can operate reliably in any weather, even heavy rain, sleet, snow and sand.
With nearly 10 pounds available for batteries and payloads, Spirit sets the new standard for performance in its weight class. The highly streamlined airframe has a top speed of over 60 miles per hour and can operate in winds that would ground other UAVs.
Spirit’s design allows for the integration of emerging technology and a growing ecosystem of payloads, power sources and launch methods that will support your mission today…and tomorrow.
One versatile platform for the payloads you have today…and the ones you’ll need tomorrow.
Two identical attach points allow plug-and-play modules to be quickly configured for any mission, and with nearly 10 pounds available, you can add additional batteries for longer flight times, or swap payload modules to suit each mission.
Top and bottom quick-attach fittings
Payloads and batteries can be mounted or stacked on either point as necessary
