Aerial Surveillance & UAS Systems

Unmanned Aerial Intelligence

Advanced drone platforms integrated with C4I command systems for comprehensive border monitoring.

AIS deploys cutting-edge UAS platforms from Leonardo and Thales for persistent aerial surveillance of border regions. These systems provide 24/7 monitoring of remote and difficult terrain, delivering real-time intelligence to centralized command centers.

Leonardo Falco Family

• Falco Evo: Heavy tactical ISR missions — extended endurance, multi-sensor payload, day/night operations
• Falco Xplorer: Strategic ISR missions — extended range, persistent surveillance, advanced intelligence gathering
• Electro-optical and infrared sensors for all-weather monitoring including SAR and SIGINT
• Turnkey ISR Service: Leonardo manages full operations — deployment, maintenance, real-time intelligence delivery
• Proven track record: used by governments worldwide for border control, anti-terrorism, disaster management

Thales UAS100 Series

• UAS100-1: 15kg MTOW, 200km endurance, 2.2hr flight time, HD EO/IR dual camera, 100km radio range
• UAS100-10: 100kg MTOW, 600km endurance, 6hr flight time, 10kg payload, up to 10,000ft altitude
• Hybrid propulsion (thermal + electric) with silent all-electric mode capability
• AES 128/256 encryption, automatic RLOS/LTE/SATCOM switching, <40ms latency
• ScaleFlyt digital platform: cybersecure cloud processing, AI target detection, autonomous flight management
• Detect and Avoid (DAA): dual radar, ADS-B/FLARM, 6000m detection range, collision avoidance

C4I Integration

All UAS platforms integrate seamlessly with the MSIaaS Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence system. Real-time feeds from cameras, radars, and drones flow to central control rooms. AI-enhanced video analysis enables automatic anomaly detection. Edge computing at system level enables real-time analysis. Mobile command units extend coverage to field operations.

Operational Capabilities

• Persistent 24/7 monitoring of border regions including remote and difficult terrain
• Beyond Line of Sight (BLOS) operations with satellite communication backup
• AI-powered detection, tracking, and identification of moving targets
• Rapid deployment: operational in under 20 minutes from transport
• Multi-spectral sensing: visible, infrared, thermal, and SAR imaging

Strategic Benefits

Comprehensive monitoring without constant personnel presence. Early warning for incoming threats. Enhanced deterrence through visible capability. Reduced operational costs vs manned aircraft. Actionable intelligence for rapid threat response.
