This video from General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) highlights the capabilities of its Precision Exportable Launched Effect (PELE), providing accurate and impactful performance on the battlefield.

Inspired by Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of powerful natural forces, PELE is a semi-autonomous, multi-mission platform designed to carry diverse mission payloads. Whether launched from the wings of a medium-altitude, long-endurance UAS such as the MQ-9B, or deployed via a ground-based launch system, PELE can deliver a variety of powerful battlefield effects.

Developed for the global aerospace and defense market, PELE serves as a highly versatile and cost-effective force multiplier.
