Talon DT-300

The Talon DT-300 is a highly reconfigurable fully electric VTOL UAS that is ideal for a variety of critical military and government missions, including ISTAR, cargo delivery, humanitarian aid, and target detection, identification, and tracking. Featuring a unique dual-rotor design inspired by the CH-47 Chinook cargo helicopter, it offers class-leading and cost-effective performance with superior payload and range, and ultra-low operational radar and acoustic signatures for maximum covertness. Built in the UK, the system is not reliant on Far Eastern components.

The aircraft's highly optimized and stable aerodynamic design utilizes tandem counter-rotating rotors, removing the need for a tail rotor and ensuring that all power is used for generating lift. Active blade pitch control allows the platform to harness translation lift during forward flight with unparalleled efficiency. These capabilities enable the Talon to outperform traditional multirotor designs by a factor of up to four times.

The Talon DT-300 is equipped with a NextVision Raptor EO/IR gimbal and DTC long-range digital datalink as standard. Its 45 kg payload capacity also allows it to act as a mothership capability, enabling smaller FPV drones to be launched directly from its modular carrier rack for extended BVLOS operations.

The ultra-lightweight carbon composite fuselage features a locking hinge and folds down into three sections for maximum portability and convenience, providing a highly transportable form factor that is easily stored in a flight case and can be carried and loaded by two people into a small vehicle.
