Yaró ISR/ISTAR
FAST, SILENT
LONG-RANGE

YARO (Saqr نسر)

Yaró 150 HLS is a light tactical (Class II) 150kg MTOW version, designed for the US market, tightly following NATO STANAG 4703/AEP-83 standards; and Yaró 150 LE is the non-restricted exports version, configured for international sales.This Tier I very light airframe is designed to be at the top of its Class in payload capacity, cruise and maximum speed, and endurance.

Both versions are designed for long-endurance, day and night, all-weather ISR/ISTAR, ELINT, and advance multi-sensor remote sensing applications. Yaró 150 has two underwing hardpoints for pods or pylons.

The main task of this AI-driven aircraft configuration is to create an Information Dominance (ID) bubble’. Yaró has a tropicalized version for hot hyper arid deserts called Saqr (نسر).

Buuma is very light, sturdy, and designed for short takeoffs, and bumpy landings, aiming at maximizing payload capacity. It is carried in a trailer, and quickly assembled in the field.

Highlights

  1. Mid-altitude (>4000m flight height).
  2. Long-range ( 220km) .
  3. Forward Air Controller (FAC).
  4. Close Air Support (CAS).
  5. Tactical Air Coordinator (TAC), depending on the strategic deployment.

Core specifications

  1. Very long-range AF-380 gimbal customized for Yaró, carrying an EO/IR gyro camera setup, with a cooled MWIR thermal camera with continuous zoom, auto-focusing, NUC, polarity conversion, image enhancement, and integrated video sensor fusion.
  2. High-Performance AI empowered platform Integrating a high-performance computing module with expandable capabilities for video compression, multi-target recognition and tracking, image stitching, and support for landscape registration and visual navigation.
  3. Enhanced Imaging Features: Includes infrared enhancement, infrared pseudo-color, and visible light enhancement for superior image quality.
  4. Aerial Survey Mode with Platform Compensation for platform roll disturbances to maintain a vertical view of the ground.
  5. Integrated Inertial Navigation: for high-precision attitude and position data, with the ability to use onboard inertial navigation as a backup and switch between internal and onboard data sources.
  6. The laser ranging detection (LRF) is capable of geopointing, target locking, and scene locking with <5m precision.
  7. And the Laser Pointer (LP) has a range of 20-23km, with a beam divergence of ≤ 0.2 mrad, and a repetition rate of 5Hz.
  8. The advanced 150 or 250km datalink alternatives include a set of sophisticated anti jamming features.
  9. Alternatively, it can be suited with a IMS-350 Iridium Certus Satcom.

A Maritime Patrol version of this aircraft can be suited with VIDAR (optical-isr-istar Radar) with 300x maritime search coverage, wide area search (180° coverage in front of the aircraft), autonomous object detection with AI, small object detection, and passive detection.

Kinetic Assisting Capabilities

  1. Battlefield Reconnaissance and Dynamic Target Surveillance: Enables real- time battlefield intelligence and target imagery updates, swiftly detecting, identifying, and tracking targets, with direct transmission of reconnaissance images to intelligence systems via digital networks.
  2. Laser Illumination and Guidance: Provides laser illumination for selected targets, guiding laser-guided missiles or bombs for precise strikes.
  3. Strike Effect Reconnaissance and Damage Assessment: Captures real-time imagery of target damage effects, transmitting strike assessment data directly to intelligence systems via digital networks.
  4. Active and Passive Positioning: Supports both active and passive positioning with built-in local elevation data for high-precision positioning, including coordinate output and display for ground targets.
  5. Stable Target Tracking: Ensures stable tracking of static or dynamic targets, supporting manual and point-select tracking, with anti-jamming, anti-occlusion, over-the-top tracking, and decoupled tracking center from laser aiming line.
  6. Moving Target Detection: Detects moving ground targets with tracking assistance, accurately identifying and labeling targets for rapid tracking via assigned markers.
  7. Speed and Direction Measurement for Moving Targets: Provides speed and direction measurement capabilities for dynamic targets.
  8. Near-Infrared Filter and Laser Spot Detection: Includes a near-infrared filter and laser spot detection capability for enhanced performance.

General Specifications

Yaró is our first UAS family program, started in 2008, with the first commercial version launched in 2011. It was originally designed for large-scale surveying in the Amazon, where environmental conditions are extremely rugged and support infrastructure is almost inexistent.

Our first Yaró model was the venerable 450 single-engine, then followed by our dependable flagship, the Yaró 650 twin-engine model in 2011.

Since then, the Yaró UAS family is updated to take advantage of advances in electronics miniaturization and sensor detection range, increasing aircraft speed, and flight height and range capabilities.

Rugged, modular, easy to transport, easy to operate, incomparably cost-effective. With simple logistics, this modular aircraft can be operated by three servicemen (pilot, sensor operator and mechanic) from remote, inhospitable out posts.

Yaró 150 is the last airframe iteration of this family, now slimmer, lighter, and even more aerodynamically capable, with the highest cruise speed in its Class.

Powered by an exclusive TBO certified, fuel-injected engine, Yaró 150 is designed for maximum safety and reliability along its life-cycle.

Yaró outstanding combination of endurance, payload capacity, and range, with up to 16 hours flying with a 14kg payload, with a range of 2100km. With a complex gimbal system, carrying target ranging and pointing at +20km, Yaró has a endurance of 8 hours and a range of 1120km.
