STAG-4

The STAG-4 line of compact stabilized gimbals have been engineered for ISR and targeting missions on small tactical unmanned aircraft. Designed for multirotor platforms operating in both tethered and untethered configurations, the systems deliver precision imagery and targeting support for situational awareness and counter-mine missions. The SWaP-optimized design enables deployment on size-constrained sUAS platforms while maintaining the pointing accuracy and sensor performance required for operational ISR workflows.

Built on a modular open architecture aligned with MOSA principles, the STAG-4 shares a common control and stabilization framework across the STAG family, allowing integration of mission-specific sensor packages without altering the core platform. Precision two-axis stabilization ensures steady imagery during flight, while integrated GPS/INS enables geopointing and geolocation of observed targets.

The system incorporates onboard HD video processing, a multi-mode target tracker, and Ethernet-based control compatible with STANAG 4586. High-definition H.264 video output with MISB metadata supports seamless integration with ground control software and intelligence systems used across unmanned platforms.
