Group 2 heavy-lift tiltrotor UAS with modular payload system. The Piglet is a Group 2 medium UAS designed for complex combat applications that require high levels of maneuverability and mixed-range precision. Featuring unique tilt-rotor technology that provides more robust and direct control than traditional gimbal setups, it can carry a variety of weapons systems up to .50 caliber rifles and 40mm grenade launchers. The powerful tactical UAS is also equipped with an advanced ballistics calculator for operator
target assistance, capable of 15cm groupings at ranges of 1000 meters.Thanks to its modular payload system, the Piglet can also be integrated with almost any sensor payload the user requires, including ISR camera gimbals, multispectral cameras and chemical/radiation detectors. A tethering system allows the UAS to provide a persistent capability at heights of up to 80 meters for use cases such as security and perimeter surveillance, and a wire-assisted airdrop system can be installed for delivery of vital cargo such as trauma kits and medical supplies. Piglet can also be deployed as a mothership capability for up to three nano-drones.The BLOS-capable platform utilizes an AES-256 encrypted and EW (electronic warfare)-protected datalink, and is compatible with BMS and ATAK for seamless integration into existing defense ecosystems. No critical data is stored on board the aircraft, ensuring that security is maintained even if the unit is captured.
