WASP
Product descripton: WASP by ISS Aerospace
WASP is a robust, tube-launched UAV representing next generation technology for semi-autonomous aerial systems. Inherently flexible, it delivers game-changing, cost-effective capability enhancement to a wide range of users. Applications include detector and effector missions.
WASP is man portable and deployed in < 3 seconds. The launcher can be operated physically by a person, or remotely if mounted on a vehicle, infrastructure, or ship. The UAV transitions to conventional multi-rotor flight after an initial rocket launch. Mission dependent, the whole system is re-usable. It can be stored for many years and remain ready for rapid use.
The UAV is equipped with a high-performance gimbal mounted EO/IR camera with range finder, plus a modular payload system up to 1.5kg. The payload can be delivered accurately to 24km. Resilient communications enable shared, real-time feed and hand-over of control options. Open system architecture enables wide interoperability. WASP is swarming capable.
