Electric ISR eVTOL sUAS
Autonomous mid-range eVTOL UAS for tactical ISR operations
Aeter V1
Aeter V1 is a fully electric autonomous VTOL UAV that requires no runway for launch or recovery.
It supports long-range ISR, artillery fire adjustment, automatic targeting and communications relay with its modular open architecture, swappable payloads and AI-enabled autonomous capabilities designed for operations in GNSS- and communication-denied environments.
