A Critical Robotic Asset
Modern technology has completely altered the mechanisms of warfare. Humans remain at the core of every operation, being the ultimate decision-makers. But reconnaissance, communications, and even combat are being supplemented with innovative unmanned solutions.
Improving Dynamic Combat Situations
In today’s rapidly evolving military landscape, mobility, rapid deployment, and unmanned system autonomy are critical for maintaining a tactical advantage.
- Free-flying drones require active piloting.
- Free-flying drones have limited flight time.
- Conventional targeting methods are manpower-intensive and prone to inaccuracy.
- Network Range extension via masts is slow and encumbering.
- Combat vehicles need reliable and rapid deployments.

Warfighter Testimony
“My favorite weapon system was the Mark 19. Because of how, whenever we can launch the Hoverfly and also correct and adjust our rounds from the Hoverfly, it’s an all-in-one system right there. You don’t need a third person to tell you where and how to adjust your rounds; you can see it all for yourself from the system itself. So it just shows that it has a lot of capabilities that we’re still discovering and understanding.”
