Black Swan
A large remotely-piloted or autonomous cargo aircraft built entirely in Europe. It carries 350 kg of freight over distances of up to 2,500 km at cruise speeds of 200 km/h, operating from short unpaved airstrips as compact as 400 metres. The platform is designed for time-sensitive logistics including pharmaceuticals, mail, spare parts and perishables, and is the first drone cargo aircraft to hold an EU airline operational licence.
Black Swan Detect and Defend
A defence and dual-use variant of the Black Swan platform, launched in February 2026. Classified as a NATO Class III UAS, it offers more than 24 hours of continuous endurance and can carry a range of modular mission payloads for surveillance, airborne early warning and ISTAR operations. In its initial configuration with HENSOLDT's PrecISR AESA synthetic aperture radar and MissionGrid mission management software, the aircraft can detect and track airborne, ground and maritime threats in all weather conditions.
