Red Cat Holdings’ Teal Drones subsidiary develops American-made drone platforms that are more than just flying cameras. Teal’s military-grade unmanned aircraft equip warfighters and civilian operators alike with powerful and rugged capabilities that ensure maximum mission effectiveness even at night and under the most challenging of environmental conditions.
The Teal 2 is an advanced quadcopter sUAS (small unmanned aerial system) that is designed, built, and serviced in the USA and is one of the approved platforms on the U.S. Department of Defense DIU Blue UAS list. Designed primarily for short-range reconnaissance missions, it is ideal for a wide range of military and civilian use cases, and is highly cost-effective within its class.
Featuring a compact, foldable and rugged design, the versatile UAS is easily carried in a rucksack and can be rapidly deployed under the most challenging of conditions. Optimized for mission-critical night-time operation, the Teal 2 is equipped with the advanced FLIR Hadron 640R EO/IR payload, combining a 64MP visible camera with a radiometric 640 x 512 thermal imager. This sophisticated system enables users to easily identify and track targets and gain critical situational awareness even in complete darkness.
The Teal 2 has been engineered with a modular design that allows it to be enhanced with upgrade packages, future-proofing the platform as technology advances. This modularity also allows payloads and propulsion systems to be quickly swapped out, making it easy to repair or reconfigure in the field.
Red Cat Holdings has also acquired Flightwave Aerospace Systems, the developer of a military-grade hybrid VTOL tricopter that balances the versatility and manoeuvrability of multirotor drones with the long range and endurance of fixed-wing aircraft.
The Edge 130 Blue has been specifically designed to meet the needs of mission-critical government and military applications. Able to take off and land anywhere, the versatile drone can operate from an extremely small logistical footprint, and can be assembled and launched in just one minute. Featuring independent tilt-pod technology, the hybrid platform seamlessly transitions between forward flight and hover modes, and delivers class-leading flight endurances of up to two hours.
The versatile UAS can be equipped with a range of easily-swappable Blue UAS-approved payloads, including a dual-channel EO/IR gimbal and a triple-camera mapping system. The UAS also features cyber-hardened radios with AES-128/256 encryption for the utmost in security.
