AEROSONDE MQ19

The Aerosonde Small Unmanned Aircraft System is logging thousands of operational hours per month in some of the world’s most challenging environments. With its expanded size, weight and power (SWAP) profile, the system can execute day-and-night imaging, communications relay, signals intelligence and an additional customer-selected payload in a single sortie. Today, Textron Systems has enhanced the system’s flexibility even further with the Aerosonde HQ, a runway-independent configuration that uses Hybrid Quadrotor technology to achieve vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL). Combined with the Aerosonde system’s proven performance and benchmark-setting reliability, the Aerosonde HQ brings unparalleled levels of mission capability and flexibility.
