Red Dragon®
Red Dragon® is a fully autonomous capable, software-defined, unmanned aircraft system (UAS) designed for one-way attack missions in high-threat, GPS-denied and communications-degraded environments. Optimized for cross-domain use across air, land, and maritime, the platform is built on AV’s AVACORE™ shared software-defined architecture, enabling rapid development, scalable production, and tailored mission flexibility. The system is capable of autonomous execution of mission objectives without reliance on continuous operator input or satellite navigation.
