VECTOR-400

The VECTOR-400 is a cutting-edge autopilot that has been designed with built-in physical and logical redundancy for accurate attitude and position estimation performance even after individual sensor failures, ensuring the utmost in safety and reliability. It is ideal for the requirements of aerial target drone platforms, and when equipped with a radar altimeter, it can control high-speed sea-skimming flight at altitudes down to 7m ASL.

The versatile unit also offers the marine-hardening required for USV applications, supporting referenced navigation and enabling safe approaches to mothership vessels for collision-free recovery.

The low-SWaP autopilot is easy to integrate into many avionics systems, and offers military-grade connectors and integrated datalink options. It has been designed to a range of military standards including MIL-STD-810 for environmental conditions and MIL-STD-461 for EMI/EMC.
