Product Name: Skylark-II
Product Description
The Skylark-II is a close-range tactical UAV system providing advanced, high performance ISTAR capabilities. The compact and easily deployable system is ideal for both military and homeland defense / security missions. It can perform day, night and adverse weather observation, data collection and target designation at mission ranges exceeding 50 kilometers.
The Skylark-II deployment uses Humvee class field-vehicles equipped with an integral launcher for point launch and recovery and an advanced dual-station Ground Control Station. Full cycle operation is possible with a crew of two. The advanced UAV is highly autonomous with mission-centric capabilities that include all Hermes family heritage flight and mission modes. The Skylark-II Air-vehicle dimensions and weight allow for convenient handling by the two-person crew during all mission phases from assembly, to launch and recovery.
The unique technologically advanced propulsion system is silent, lightweight and highly efficient. It enables medium altitude as well as low altitude covert flights for sharp imagery and operational reconnaissance under cloud covers. The streamlined gimbaled and stabilized triple-sensor payload features a color CCD day camera, 3rd generation thermal imaging night camera and a laser illuminator.
The Skylark-II design is based on our vast accumulated operational experience with both mini (Skylark) and tactical (Hermes 180 & Hermes 450) UAVs. Skylark-II extends the capabilities of Skylark, Elbit Systems' class-leading man-portable UAV system, into the close-range domain with enhanced performance, high quality day & night video, highly covert operation and a very small logistic footprint.
