Continuing the evolution of the Orbiter line and the Small Tactical UAS, Aeronautics introduces the Orbiter 4 STUAS, an advanced multi-mission platform with extraordinary and versatile carrier, mission and endurance capabilities.
Orbiter 4 STUAS delivers top mission performance with its lightest, most versatile and most advanced covert platform available today, for both land and maritime operations.
The UAV can simultaneously carry multiple payloads, extending its ISTAR capabilities. With its ease-of-use, low logistical footprint and small crew of 3personnel, Orbiter 4, the runway-free aircraft suits all operational needs.
Orbiter 4 builds on the successful system design of the Orbiter 3 STUAS, with its advanced avionics, communications and ground control features and applications. The acclaimed legacy capabilities of the fleld-proven Orbiter UAS family remain.
Measure for measure, Orbiter 4 will deliver the same capabilities as the tactical platforms operational today, but with better endurance, serviceability, operational flexibility and cost-effectiveness.
