The S12 UAV system is a hand-launched, small tactical Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition, and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) platform with a maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) of 10 kg.

Key Features

• Precise Parachute Landing: Enables safe and accurate recovery in various terrains
• High-Resolution EO/IR Gimbals: Equipped with high optical zoom capabilities for long-range surveillance and reconnaissance, even at high altitudes
• Laser Range Finder (LRF): Provides precise distance measurements to targets
• Extended Endurance: Up to 5 hours of flight time is achievable thanks to an efficient propulsion system and aerodynamically optimized airframe
• Long Operational Range: Capable of operating up to 150 km from the launch point
• Single-Operator Capability: Designed for operation by a single experienced operator, even in challenging weather conditions
• GPS-Denied Operation: Possesses navigation capabilities that function effectively even without GPS signal

This system profile suggests the S12 is designed for demanding missions requiring both long-range observation and precise target location in potentially challenging environments. The emphasis on single-operator functionality and GPS-denied operation highlights its suitability for tactical and potentially austere operational settings.
