Drohne zur schnellen Versorgung aus der Luft

By Ninian Carter

September 13, 2019 - Die US Aviationfirma YEC hat ihre "Silent Arrow" Kargodrohne vorgestellt – ein Kit für ein kompaktes Fluggerät, das bis zu 740kg Fracht befördern kann.

The Defence & Security Equipment International expo in London has showcased a highly original aircraft design from Yates Electrospace Corporation (YEC).

The “Silent Arrow” cargo delivery drone is an autonomous glider that can deliver up to 740kg of military supplies to the battlefield, or relief aid to ravaged communities.

Its payload can be conveyed at less than half the cost of traditional GPS-guided parachutes known as the Joint Precision Aerial Delivery System (JPADS). Furthermore, Silent Arrow can travel laterally more than double the distance of JPADS, with dramatically improved landing accuracy, zero vertical impact force and with far greater stealth.

YEC has signed supply agreements with 34 territories including the EU, UK, Australia, Singapore, South Korea, Israel, Brazil and India.
