HEWË (Khofash خفاش)

Hewë is rugged, Kevlar layered foam body, twin-motor powered, tailsitter for highly stable, reliable aerial surveying, and ordinance tactical delivery.

Backpack portable Micro Aerial Vehicle (MAV)

This rugged, simple airfrarme is one of the sturdiest airframes in the market, enabling it to be operated in harsh, unforgiving environments.

Its nose cone detachable payload compartment is spacious enough to carry delicate sensors like Lidar, or sensitive ordinance for dropping or nose diving precisely to the target.

Hewë as a rather simple, clever design, with an easy geometry control, and tandem motors enabling a very precise, balanced take-off, mission control, and landing.

The airframe can be hand launched, to reduce battery use, or autonomous vertical take-off. \Unipersonal, ultraportable platform, electric-power 3kg, 16km range ISR-LP, with one hour endurance for rapid deployment in highly movable operations, all controlled by our Shaheen AI Visual Navigation System.

Hëwe is a new back-pack portable tailsitter with a 1-hour endurance, EO/LWIR gimbal, laser ranging and tracking of moving targets from a handheld touchscreen GCS.

  1. Twin-engine for better leveled flight control.
  2. Controlled vertical take-off and landing (or hand launched, and belly landing, to reduce battery use).
  3. Highly precise and accurate INS/GNSS.
  4. Precise elevation and positioning towards the leveled flight plan.
  5. Smooth transitioning from hovering to horizontal flight.
  6. As a twin-motor flying wing, it offers a very stable, leveled, controlled flight.
  7. With a cruise flight velocity of 16m/s, it can reach a max. of 30m/s.
  8. Multiple payload options by swapping the nose cone bay (spectrometers, cameras, Lidar).

Multiple payload options by swapping the nose cone bay (spectrometers, cameras, Lidar) alternative to the standard gimbal video ISR payload.

The nose cone can be configured as an ordinance carrying case, transforming Hewë in a highly precise and accurate kamikaze drone.
