An XOS-enabled micro tactical unmanned aircraft system delivering immediate situational awareness indoors, underground and in GNSS-denied environments from a protected stand-off position.
Three-drone mesh GNSS-denied flight EO/IR sensor XOS integration
Tactical awareness beyond the line of sight
XTENDER supports reconnaissance inside buildings, subterranean spaces and other environments where conventional positioning and communications may be restricted. Three aircraft can operate as a coordinated mesh team to extend mission access and situational awareness.
01 Three-Drone Mesh
Three XTENDER aircraft can operate as a coordinated mesh team in complex indoor and subterranean environments.
02 GNSS-Denied Flight
Published navigation capability supports operation where satellite-based positioning is unavailable or unreliable.
03 EO/IR Observation
An electro-optical and infrared sensor supports day, night and reduced-light reconnaissance requirements.
04 Impact-Resistant Frame
The robust carbon-fibre-based frame is designed for operation close to walls, floors and obstacles.
XOS-enabled human-guided autonomy
XTENDER operates within XTEND’s XOS ecosystem. The architecture combines human mission authority with autonomous navigation, perception and task-execution functions, reducing continuous manual-control demands while maintaining operator supervision.
