About

About E400 ISR

E400 ISR is a nine-kilogram electric fixed-wing VTOL aircraft with a carbon-fibre airframe and two-hour endurance at full operating weight. It launches vertically from confined areas, transitions into wing-borne flight and can be prepared by one operator in approximately four minutes.

The validated NightHawk2-UZ payload combines electro-optical and thermal imaging with 40-times total zoom and continuous pan rotation. A 4G radio can operate alongside the point-to-point command link, while an open architecture supports additional mission equipment. The IP53, US-manufactured platform targets public safety, border surveillance, search and infrastructure missions requiring longer station time than a compact multirotor.
