This video from Red Cat Holdings, a developer of Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) drone technologies, demonstrates a coordinated Convoy Route Recon mission using its family of uncrewed systems.
The mission simulation centers on ensuring the safe passage of a moving convoy operating in a non-permissive environment. As the vehicles advance along the route, the Edge 130 provides long-range forward ISR and performs overwatch ahead of the convoy to identify potential threats.
When a possible ambush is detected, Black Widow™ is deployed from the moving vehicle to conduct short-range ISR and verify the threat. The video shows the use of the Web™ controller and ATAK UAS tool, as well as Sightline/Athena AI-aided target recognition, supporting identification and confirmation.
Following confirmation of the ambush threat, Fang™ is launched to neutralize the threat while the convoy remains in motion. The scenario concludes with a battle damage assessment, completing the detect, identify and engage sequence without requiring the convoy to stop or unnecessarily expose the convoy to risk.
The video presents Red Cat’s systems operating together as an example of all-domain autonomy designed to keep forces moving and protected.
