SPARTAN UAS

The SPARTAN is a rugged coaxial UAS engineered for demanding public safety, industrial, and military operations. Building on the proven NX30 platform, SPARTAN integrates a refined aerodynamic profile with a high-performance coaxial rotor system, delivering superior endurance, speed, range, and payload flexibility in a compact cylindrical form factor. Designed for operational environments where portability, reliability, and weather resilience are mission-critical, it offers advanced performance for remote missions well beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS).

Capable of carrying payloads up to 6.9 kg (15.3 lbs), SPARTAN features a modular payload interface for seamless sensor swaps and mission-specific integration. FAA-compliant strobe and RGB status lighting ensure night operation readiness, while the IP54-rated enclosure shields internal components from rain, snow, and debris. With a maximum observed altitude of 14,600 feet and endurance exceeding 70 minutes in ideal configurations, Spartan extends operational reach for tactical surveillance, rapid-response logistics, and ISR missions in challenging, austere environments.
