UAS Advanced Development:
Raven RQ-11A
The Raven RQ-11A is a battle proven solution designed for rapid deployment and high mobility for both military and commercial applications. With a wingspan of 4.5 feet and a weight of 4.2 pounds, the hand-launched Raven provides aerial observation at line-of-sight ranges up to 10 kilometers.
The system can be flown manually or autonomously through set way-points with options of either a daylight or infrared camera, allowing both day and night operations. Over 3,000 Ravens have already been deployed to US Forces for use in light infantry Military Operations in Urban Terrain (MOUT) and dismounted warfare.
