V-STAR™
Download V-STAR™ Datasheet in PDF
Tactical UAVs have tremendous potential to transform the outcome on the battlefield. Yet none until V-STAR™ has solved the longstanding challenges of providing rapid, flexible logistical support for troops needing critical supplies at the front line — as well as giving commanders optional payloads for ISR, lethal and other missions.
V-STAR™ is a medium-altitude, VTOL-capable, autonomous UAV solution for land and naval force commanders that outperforms helicopters and tilt-rotor UAV systems. The design provides tremendous payload flexibility. V-STAR's™ unique patented lift fans, diamond box wing and proven Rolls-Royce power plants create the core of this revolutionary UAV configuration.
V-STAR™ — VTOL-Swift Tactical Aerial Resource™ — creates a new logistical,intelligence, and weapons asset.
Representing a novel solution to the longstanding UAV design challenges of the Front Line Delivery System (FLDS) combined with Multi-Role Endurance (MRE) capabilities — V-STAR™ radically exceeds the performance capabilities of other VTOL and tactical UAVs. This patent-pending breakthrough is achieved by the use of counter-rotating ducted ring-fans and a diamond box wing structure, plus the first practical morphing wing to extend range and endurance.
V-STAR™ TOP VIEW
The core technology enables the V-STAR™ to provided superior speed, rate of climb, reliability, endurance, payload, and mission flexibility. For the first time there is a UAV that truly delivers key capabilities that military forces are looking for now and will demand in the future. V-STAR™ provides the operators with a single platform that:
In addition to the baseline front-line delivery mission, V-STAR™ can also adapt rapidly to a wide range of combat support roles. V-STAR™ provides exceptional power for electronic warfare, communications relay and other vital intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition and reconnaissance missions.

V-STAR™ Datasheet
Tactical UAVs have tremendous potential to transform the outcome of the battlefield. However, none until V-STAR™ has solved the long-standing challenges of logistical support for troops with optional lethal payloads and capability of ISR and other missions.
V-STAR™ is a medium altitude, VTOL capable, autonomous UAV solution for land and naval force commanders that outperforms helicopters and tilt-rotor UAV systems. The design provides tremendous payload flexibility—from traditional ISR roles to lethal weapons to logistical supply deliveries for combat troops. V-STAR’s™ unique patented lift fans, diamond box wing and Rolls Royce power plants create the core of this revolutionary UAV configuration.
V-STAR™ Creates New Logistical, Intelligence And Weapons Assets.
Our VTOL-Swift Tactical Aerial Resource ™ – or V-STAR™ – is the "HUMVEE of the air" and provides a breakthrough solution for frontline military logistics and related Multi-Role Endurance missions. With payload at the center-of-gravity, V-STAR™ provides real mission flexibility: it can carry ISTAR (intelligence / surveillance / target acquisition / reconnaissance) packages or weapons, then morph back into its primary role providing frontline combat logistics.
The modular payload approach allows for rapid change-out in the field – one minute providing troops with ammo, food, water and fuel – and the next minute providing tactical reconnaissance, communications and close combat support.
