Applications

Infrastructure Inspection

Enhance efficiency for large-scale inspections of railroads, pipelines, and powerlines. The X8 offers 6–8 times the flight time of traditional UAS and supports custom payload configurations, ensuring unmatched data collection capabilities. Its low electromagnetic and vibrational profile enables seamless integration of high-quality sensors like LiDAR and high-resolution cameras, providing precise insights for preventive maintenance and operations.

Disaster Response

Deploy within minutes for rapid response missions. The heavy-duty build minimizes risks in extreme conditions, keeping first responders operational for up to 2.5 hours. Equipped with optional sensors like EO/IR cameras, rangefinders, and IMSI catchers, the X8 can locate individuals in need, assess environmental damage, and navigate hazardous terrain effectively.

Surveillance

Security agencies can stay airborne longer with advanced day/night cameras, enabling continuous monitoring of critical infrastructure and vast border areas. The X8’s ability to carry multi-payload configurations allows for simultaneous deployment of ISR systems and other advanced surveillance tools, ensuring comprehensive coverage and actionable intelligence in real-time.
