Look at that thing. It has so much stuff on it. VTOL, normal flight, antennas, and who knows what else to be strapped on it. Does everything, but none of it well. Well, except make some defense contractor a shitton of money.
That’s the aerosonde and it’s actually a sick piece of tech. They’re competing for the tactical UAS contract right now, and VTOL is a requirement, so bolt-on packages for existing platforms are kind of an easy out. Also it’s a recon platform so fly and do camera are really the only things it has to do well.
