AeroVironment
Small uncrewed aircraft and precision loitering systems at squad scale.
AeroVironment defined the hand-launched tactical UAS category and remains the volume supplier for squad and battalion-level reconnaissance and loitering systems. Its platforms are designed for dismounted operators rather than airfield-based crews.
- Small UAS requirements deliver faster than aviation cases, which makes them a strong entry program for a new partner-nation relationship.
- Their systems train quickly, which matters when the customer's operator pool rotates.
- Hand-launched reconnaissance UAS
- Loitering precision-strike systems
- Ground control stations and common operator interfaces
- Uncrewed ground vehicles and tactical robotics
Export control & compliance posture
- USML Cat. VIII (military UAS)
- USML Cat. IV (loitering munitions)
- ECCN 9A012 for some variants
Uncrewed aircraft fall under USML Category VIII or the EAR depending on range, payload, and autonomy; MTCR Category considerations apply to longer-range systems. Each configuration is jurisdiction-checked before we issue pricing. Loitering munitions receive heightened policy review.
