AAI's Shadow® 200 TUAS at the fore front of the family of Shadow unmanned aircraft systems. It's the choice of the U.S. Army as "the eyes of brigade commanders to see first, understand first, and act first—decisively."
Shadow 200 sees targets 125 kilometers away from the brigade tactical operations center.
It recognizes tactical vehicles up to 8,000 feet above ground at more than 3.5 kilometers slant range, day or night.
AAI’s Shadow ground control station transmits imagery and telemetry data directly to Joint STARS, All Sources Analysis Systems, and the Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System in near real time.
The system provides near real time targeting data for precision weapons using “leap ahead” technology.
Users can deploy a Shadow 200 system anywhere in theater using only three C-130 aircraft.
