Texo’s architecture enables the use of the same operational doctrine for all its variants, no matter the size. Our first operational version is a 50kg MTOW aiframe for ISR and IMSI catching in urban operations

This concept originated from a recent demand from the Oceania Region. During the concept design for the proposal, several operational hurdles were solved, and a consolidated version was produced.

We adopted the codename Unmanned Tactical Logistics (TL) Platform for the new architecture for high-risk land and sea resupply operations. The Project is entering the detailing phase aiming at manufacturing the first prototype for structural tests by March, 2023.

The first prototype for flight tests will be produced by the end of 2023.
