R10 (Defence Version)
Product descripton: R10 (Defence Version) by MGI Defence
R10 is a ruggedised aerial delivery drone optimised for tactical logistics and payload drop-offs in cluttered or austere environments. With a range of 25 km and 10–15 kg payload capacity, R10 delivers with pinpoint accuracy—even in high crosswinds, cluttered urban environments, or maritime zones.
Engineered around MGI’s proprietary tilt-rotor platform, R10 can loiter, hover, and drop autonomously, making it a mission-critical tool for risk-averse resupply operations. The R10’s utility extends as a mothership for sub-UAS or drop munitions where the end user wishes to extend engagement ranges.
Benefits
- High-Accuracy Drop Capability – Tilt-rotor design enables agile descent and precise payload placement utilizing precision landing radar.
- Modular Load Carriage – Adapts to diverse mission sets from resupply to ISR to strike.
- Mothership Cradle – Extends ISR and effective ranges for carried sub-UAS and drop munitions.
- Modular Control – Onboard autonomous control or FPV modes.
- Integrated Logistics Workflow – Compatible with MGI e-Glide USV for air/land/sea logistics operations.
- Compact Footprint – 1.8 m class for vehicle- or man-portable deployment.
- Sovereign Manufacture – Built in the UK with a licensing model available for allied partners.
Mission Effectiveness
R10 enables last-mile delivery where traditional UAS or manned options are infeasible due to terrain, time, or risk. With silent approach, hover-stabilised control, and terrain-following descent, R10 excels in urban, mountain, or maritime contexts. It is ideal for supply drops, as a mothership for sub-munitions, or for denied-access tactical support.
