X-5B Huntress – All Weather Drone
Product descripton: X-5B Huntress – All Weather Drone by WaveAerospace
WaveAerospace X-5B Huntress
WaveAerospace designs unmanned aircraft capable of carrying the most critical payloads in the most demanding operational conditions. What sets our aircraft apart is their ability to operate in wind and weather conditions that would ground conventional aerial systems.
Whether the mission involves BVLOS reconnaissance, tactical communications, logistics support, or airspace denial, the X-5B Huntress delivers reliable performance day or night.
Built on the same proprietary hybrid platform as our other aircraft, the X-5B Huntress exceeds the inherent design limitations of both winged and rotorcraft systems. Its payload-agnostic architecture allows the aircraft to be configured for a wide range of missions—from long-range, low radar-profile operations to VTOL deployments from ship decks in Force 10 conditions.
The X-5B Huntress is designed for immediate operational readiness, and WaveAerospace provides unmatched support and maintenance to ensure the aircraft remains airworthy at all times. With the Huntress, you fly during the storm, not after it.
