UAVOS Launches New-gen UAS Prototype
UAVOS has completed the S1-V300 Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE) Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) prototype designed to check basic aircraft systems. The advanced UAS model is based on the Saker MALE UAS design that achieved operational capability in 2020.
The S1-V300 MALE UAS prototype is an upgrade to the unmanned system and features a new design and a more powerful heavy fuel engine with 260 HP offering greater speed, payload, and endurance of 28 hours with a range of 4,020 km.
The work performed under UAVOS’ MALE UAS programme using its proven Saker aircraft capabilities has enabled it to create a new generation S1-V300 MALE unmanned platform. The aircraft features unique avionics solutions and a redundant flight control system, which will enable the complex missions of the MALE UAS.
The improved S1-V300 prototype is equipped with both Line-of-Sight (LOS) and Beyond-Line-of-Sight (BLOS) data link systems for over-the-horizon operations. Additionally, the aircraft may be integrated with multiple ISR sensors, including state-of-the-art Electro-optical Infrared (EO/IR) cameras and a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) that offers all-weather, day/night performance for a wide-area search capability.
Enhanced with ISR capabilities, the S1-V300 UAS will be able to support a variety of overland and maritime Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions worldwide.
