The BRAMOR C4EYE UAS is a state-of-the-art C4ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) fixed wing solution designed to provide real-time situational awareness for critical missions.
Featuring a flight endurance of up to 3 hours, a range of up to 180 km and a standard line-of-sight (LOS) datalink range of up to 40km, the BRAMOR C4EYE provides unparalleled efficiency for large-scale, long-range government and private company operations where real-time situational awareness is paramount.
The aerodynamic blended-wing modular airframe design, constructed from advanced composite materials (Kevlar/Carbon/Vectran), provides a high level of durability and wind resistance and is very hard to detect with conventional radars.
The system includes the drone with sensor payload, a foldable takeoff catapult and a rugged ground control station (GCS), all fitting neatly into a MILSPEC, rain-resistant backpack.
Designed for fast deployment, the BRAMOR C4EYE can be made flight-ready in less than five minutes, and is intended to be operated by a two-person crew, with safe single-operator command possible if necessary.
The BRAMOR C4EYE UAS can be equipped with several different payloads that can be easily interchangeable in less than 2 min, with the EYE-X HD2 as standard. View all sensor options >
EYE-X HD2 and HD4 EO/IR Gimbals
The EYE-X HD2 and HD4 stabilized gimbals provide long-range visible imagery as well as powerful thermal observation capabilities, with an optional laser illuminator. They are ideal for tactical drone applications, and are capable of detecting, tracking, following and geo-locating targets and objects during the day and at night. High resolution video contains embedded KLV metadata for advanced analytics and geolocation purposes.
NSX Search & Rescue Payload
The NSX SAR payload has been designed to quickly and accurately locate mobile phones within areas of up to 40 km2 in a single flight, with a search path of up to 2km wide. The sensor delivers latitude and longitude data which can be displayed on an embedded mapping system or accessed via a web browser interface.
Designed to meet extreme environmental conditions encountered during search and rescue UAV operations, the NSX is resistant to vibration, EMI, extremes of temperature, moisture and salt spray, and meets DO-160-G and MIL-STD-810G specifications. It is currently being fielded on the Norwegian AW101 All-Weather SAR helicopter.

The BRAMOR ppX is specifically engineered to provide rapid, sub-centimetre accurate geolocated orthomosaics in high resolution for surveying and remote sensing applications, without the need for a grid of ground control points. Featuring advanced GNSS PPK (Post Processing Kinematic) capabilities, the system incorporates a state-of-the-art survey grade multi-constellation, multi-frequency receiver.
The unmanned aerial system’s aerodynamic design and rugged composite material construction allow it to fly in winds of up to 45 km/h or 12 m/s and operate in challenging remote environments.
With a flight endurance of up to 3 hours, the BRAMOR ppX delivers superior high-productivity autonomous data gathering for mapping and surveying.
The UAS package is comprised of the fixed wing UAV, a portable and ergonomic rugged ground control station, a catapult launcher and one or more payload options (24.2 MP RGB sensor as standard).
Possible sensor integrations include:
RBG Sensors
For survey grade mapping, aerial photogrammetry and dense point cloud data acquisition for digital terrain models, digital surface models, and volume and stockpile calculations.
Multispectral Sensors
Capturing thermal and multispectral high-resolution imagery in one flight for advanced analytics, vegetation mapping and precision agriculture.
Dual Thermal & Visual Cameras
Lightweight dual thermal and visual cameras, which capture fully aligned digital radiometric thermal data and digital visual data.
gHY Hyperspectral Sensor
Collects 2D VNIR information for advanced agriculture, forestry and water research, with a single exposure and enables mosaicking with photogrammetric software.

The ATLAS C4EYE is a lightweight fixed-wing drone designed to meet the agility and versatility needs of first responders and special operation forces. With a flight time of 90 minutes and combined EO/IR payload, the ATLAS is ideal for providing rapid situational awareness, day or night. The system can be safely operated by a single person.
The bungee-launched compact system can be safely operated by a single person and is accurately and silently recovered via parachute, with full payload protection. The system can also be launched using a hand held bungee gun (Optionally).
The aerodynamic blended-wing design, featuring advanced composite materials (Kevlar/Carbon/Vectran), minimises takeoff weight while maximising stealth and survivability. Ideal for tactical surveillance, the ATLAS C4EYE features quiet operation at 80 metres above ground level.
ATLAS’ modular construction allows fast repairs and payload swapping in the field, and the scalable system architecture can incorporate future sensor developments. The system, including the tactical drone, payload and rugged ground control station, can fit into a MIL-SPEC rain-resistant case or backpack, and can be deployed in less than three minutes.
