Aerodata unveils AeroForce X MALE drone for next-generation ISR missions
Aerodata AG, an established German provider of specialised solutions for aviation, introduces AeroForce® X, a newly developed unmanned aerial vehicle system (MALE UAS) that effectively supports modern armed forces with its advanced capabilities in the areas of situational awareness and processing, reactivity as well as own force protection and therefore contributes to sustained operations.
AeroForce® X is designed to deliver operational value throughout the entire mission chain – from ISR missions (intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance) to electronic reconnaissance and missions with heavy payloads. Thanks to its combination of high payload capacity and long flight duration, the system significantly increases operational range and effectiveness. With a planned flight duration of up to 40 hours, a maximum take-off weight of below 5 tonnes and a payload capacity of up to 1.3 tonnes, AeroForce® X is suitable for complex and extensive various missions. The system thus combines long range with endurance and offers a versatile platform for a wide range of mission profiles.
AeroForce® X is based on a modular concept that allows multiple configurations for different, complex operational scenarios. By networking with other systems, AeroForce® X can operate in direct cooperation with manned reconnaissance aircraft, significantly increasing efficiency and precision.
A particular advantage is that AeroForce® X is developed ITAR-free and is therefore available to international partners without US restrictions.
‘With AeroForce® X, we offer a tailor-made, rapidly available solution that meets the increasing demands of modern surveillance and reconnaissance missions – especially when it comes to protecting critical infrastructure,’ explains Neset Tükenmez, CEO of Aerodata AG. ‘Our platform integrates state-of-the-art sensor and mission system technology and guarantees maximum precision and reliability in the most demanding operational scenarios.’
The AeroForce® X is developed and manufactured entirely in Germany – a guarantee of the highest quality and safety standards. Initial ground tests and flight trials are already planned for 2026.
Aerodata AG will be exhibiting its latest product developments for unmanned and manned airborne surveillance at this year‘s Dubai Airshow from 17 to 21 November. Interested visitors are cordially invited to learn more about the capabilities of the AeroForce® X at booth 639.The post Aerodata unveils AeroForce X MALE drone for next-generation ISR missions appeared first on AeroTime.
