Rapid Deployment Solutions

Raven Aerostar's Tactical Aerostat Systems are ideal for quick inflation and rapid deployment. Carrying useful, lightweight payloads, they offer a stable platform for communications, intelligence gathering, surveillance, and reconnaissance.

MISSION POSSIBILITIES

MAJOR SUBSYSTEMS

Longer Flights. Higher Altitudes.

We customize our Tactical Aerostat Systems for your mission requirements.

DILATION PANEL

Equipped for missions requiring flight times greater than 8-12 hours
Allows the aerostat to maintain pressure through the diurnal (day/night) cycle and due to changes in flight altitude and weather conditions

EXTENDED TETHER LENGTH

Equipped for missions requiring flight altitudes greater than 500 ft AGL

POWERED TETHERS

Power conductors and fiber optics can be integrated with the tether based on payload equipment needs

Specifications

System performance is dependent on flight altitude, operational elevation, payload weight, and weather conditions.
