Elistair has introduced a dedicated tethered air module for the Parrot ANAFI UKR micro-Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), enabling hours of uninterrupted flight through continuous power supplied by a ground-based tether station.
Connecting the ANAFI UKR to an Elistair tethered station through a micro-tether, the new module forms part of a complete tethered Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) solution.
Designed for defense, public safety, and critical infrastructure operators requiring continuous aerial surveillance with a minimal logistical footprint, the solution supports applications including force protection, perimeter and border surveillance, event security, and response support.
Compatible with both Elistair’s Safe-T and Ligh-T tether stations, the system can be ready to fly in under two minutes while remaining portable and simple to deploy in the field.
Guilhem de Marliave, CEO of Elistair, commented, “With this new solution, we bring the endurance of tethered operations to a drone that our defense and public safety customers already trust.”
Chris Roberts, Senior Vice President & Chief Revenue Officer at Parrot, added, “At Parrot, we are committed to providing defense, public safety and critical infrastructure operators with resilient, field-proven aerial solutions that meet the demands of real-world missions. Elistair’s new tethered solution expands the operational capabilities of the ANAFI UKR by enabling persistent aerial surveillance while preserving the portability, ease of deployment and secure architecture our customers rely on. This collaboration illustrates the strength of our ecosystem and our shared commitment to delivering mission-critical intelligence when and where it matters most.”
With more than 2,000 tethered stations deployed worldwide by security forces, Elistair draws on over ten years of field experience and close customer collaboration to develop its tethered systems without compromising ease of use.
Orders for the new tethered air module are now open.
