EFFICIENT The V-Bat achieves high efficiency
by merging sailplane-like wings and a slender
fuselage with a mechanically simple ducted fan
vertical lift system that simultaneously serves as
the aircrafts tail surfaces. The V-Bat offers the
performance of proven fixed-wing design with
the flexibility of true vertical take-off and landing
capability. The V-Bat is uniquely designed for
perch and stare operations, fully capable of
flight transition at any point in a given mission.
ROBUST The V-Bat was designed to meet the
requirement for a near-zero launch recovery

footprint, shock absorbing nose-skids, Kevlar
6860 North Dallas Parkway reinforced fuselage and a sturdy duct to protect
Suite 200 the rotor and the vanes. V-Bat's durability is built
Plano, TX 75024 into its DNA.
VERSATILE The V-Bat is suited for use in
virtually any environment, especially those where
only a small launch and recovery space are
available, such as shipboard operations, urban
canyons, or remote areas with thick vegetation
such as jungle canopy. We recommend a clearing
of just 6m x 6m (20ft x 20ft) for launch and
recovery. V-BAT provides the solution for vertical
take-off and landing with the safety of a ducted fan
giving all the benefits of fixed-wing efficiency in a
small UAV system.
V-Bat enables unprecedented situational
awareness for tactical operations from confined
areas.
