We are proud to offer vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) capabilities specifically designed to operate from small vessels. The innovative design of FLARES enables quick, tool-less assembly and a compact operating footprint, allowing fixed-wing UAV operations even in confined areas. With tailored solutions for ship deployment, FLARES can launch and recover in nearly any environment, ensuring unmatched flexibility and efficiency for critical search and rescue missions.
@insitu_inc: "Why would anyone choose FLARES VTOL for Integrator/ScanEagle over other VTOL options?
The answer is simple: Capability, persistence, and value.
With 2-3x the endurance, more payload capacity and onboard power, and unmatched range via SATCOM (PLEO and GEO), FLARES is optimized for maritime, enabling longer missions with fewer air vehicles and deck cycles, saving you more time, money, manpower and disruption to other critical operations."
“The service avoided $2-3 million in potential damage to a collection of Altius fixed-wing unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) by using a new Flying Air Recovery System (FLARES).”
