Revolutionizing Industry and Defense: The Rise of Electric and Hydrogen-Powered Autonomous UAVs

ISS Aerospace's versatile multirotor drone platforms are ideal for a diverse range of missions, including mapping, surveying, inspection and surveillance

Innovative Drone Solutions by ISS Aerospace: A New Era in UAV Technology

ISS Aerospace stands at the forefront of developing cutting-edge electric and hydrogen-powered drones and UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) tailored for industrial and defense sectors. UST is thrilled to announce our partnership with ISS Aerospace, and we will be showcasing their extraordinary solutions and capabilities across our platforms over the coming year.

We have recently unveiled the UST supplier profile for ISS Aerospace, crafted in collaboration with their team. This Platinum profile highlights their UAV platforms, which have been utilized globally for a variety of missions, such as mapping, surveying, inspection, and surveillance.

Exploring ISS Aerospace’s Drone Innovations

One of their standout products, the Sensus L, is a highly versatile multi-mission drone platform featuring a modular design and a distinctive universal payload interface. Constructed entirely in-house, the aircraft boasts a 3D-printed carbon fiber-reinforced nylon hull.It can operate using conventional Li-Po batteries or a 2400W hydrogen fuel cell system, complete with an integrated regulator and hydrogen cylinder.

The Sensus L can accommodate up to three significant payloads,with a combined weight capacity of 25 kg,making it perfect for intricate multi-sensor missions that require real-time data integration and transmission. The flagship version of Sensus L comes equipped with a LiDAR scanner, ground-penetrating radar, and both thermal and multispectral imaging sensors.

Versatility of the Sensus M UAV

Another remarkable offering is the Sensus M, a versatile VTOL multirotor UAV designed for a broad spectrum of applications in the energy, environmental, and defense industries, including logistics, surveillance, and surveying. Available in both standard and coaxial configurations, it can be powered by traditional Li-Po batteries or an 800W hydrogen fuel cell system.

This aircraft can be outfitted with various payloads and sensors tailored to specific data collection needs. Its modular design allows for easy interchangeability of payload and battery configurations between the upper and lower payload rails, ensuring seamless power and data connectivity.

The Sensus M is equipped with advanced navigation and safety features, including the Here 3 RTK GNSS receiver and a 180m laser altimeter.Additionally, it is indeed compatible with Elistair’s SAFE-T2 drone tether system, enabling long-duration and persistent operations.

Custom Solutions and Manufacturing Capabilities

beyond standard commercial systems, ISS Aerospace excels in bespoke manufacturing, rapid prototyping, and research and development services. With their state-of-the-art facilities, they can create high-quality aerospace-grade solutions tailored to meet specific requirements, including customized platforms and payloads for the Sensus UAS.

ISS Aerospace has successfully delivered both off-the-shelf and custom hydrogen drone solutions to a range of prominent clients in the civilian and defense sectors, including BAE Systems, Airbus Defense & Space, Dstl, and Total.
