SHADOWLEAF

Functional capabilities

The UAV has several configuration options that change its tactical and technical characteristics depending on the components. The universal platform can have multiple equipment options. Depending on mission types and complexities, it can be used as:

During a mission, the UAV conducts photo/video documentation of events and transmits the data to the operator.

It can detect and identify various electronic devices (radios, radars, electronic warfare stations, etc.).

It can perform cargo delivery with payload activation.

During a mission, the UAV conducts photo/video documentation of events internally, without transmission.

It can perform video surveillance and provide guidance for mortar calculations, artillery, etc.

It can conduct photo/video surveillance of events with maximum image quality and control over the field of view.

The UAV is built on a modular principle, allowing the aircraft to be configured for specific missions. It consists of modular components with universal standardized mounting elements and interaction protocols (UAV-CAN), enabling quick and hassle-free replacement of mission-specific modules without the need for extensive modifications.

The complex can also be equipped with a handheld control unit, which functions as a modem for receiving real-time metadata from the UAV during flight

SHADOWLEAF can be operated using compatible third-party ground stations, such as those used for simulation or reconnaissance UAVs. In this configuration, a mobile phone or tablet with the appropriate software can serve as the ground unit for route planning and data retrieval. The system can also be equipped with a handheld control unit that functions as a modem, receiving real-time metadata from the UAV during flight.

The drone's airframe is made from advanced composite materials, making it less detectable by radar and thermal imaging devices. Its compact dimensions and low-noise operation make SHADOWLEAF nearly invisible during missions.

To perform targeting and search missions, the system can be upgraded with a full control terminal featuring payload interfaces and broadband communication. Two communication options are available: a secure, anti-jamming link and a simplified version.

Self-diagnostic systems and continuous monitoring of all processes on board the aircraft help to avoid many issues that users may encounter.
