VECTOR-400 Autopilot

The VECTOR-400 is a cutting-edge autopilot that has been specifically developed for aerial target applications, and is built to withstand the rigors of highly dynamic movements, high-speed flight, and sustained maneuvers of up to 3 Gs. When used in conjunction with a radar altimeter, it can undertake high-speed sea-skimming at down to 7 metres above sea level.

The system provides exceptional performance even under GNSS-denied conditions such as jamming, and features fully autonomous operation and built-in physical and logical redundancy. Thanks to advanced onboard software, it can carry out missions even in the event of datalink failure.

The compact autopilot is easy to integrate into many avionics systems, and offers integrated datalink options. It has been designed to a range of military standards including MIL-STD-810 for environmental engineering, MIL-STD-461 for EMI/EMC, DO-178 and DO-254.
