Insitu unveils Integrator Extended Range
Insitu has introduced a new variant of its Integrator UAS, Integrator Extended Range (ER), for military operations.
Integrator ER is a beyond line of sight, SATCOM-enabled small UAS that delivers Group 4 and 5 capabilities in a Group 3 aircraft. It offers extended range operations of ten hours on station at 200nm and six hours at 300nm; and high quality, full motion video.
It also offers bandwidth throughput up to ten megabits per second with a less than 1.5 second latency; modularity for integration of multiple payloads, including EW and SIGINT; and more secure, jam-resistant networks due to improvements in commercial communication satellite technology.
The new variant has been developed to augment higher cost systems with a small UAS, freeing up larger strike-capable unmanned assets to conduct more of the kinetic missions for which they were designed.
Esina Alic, president and CEO, Insitu, said: ‘High quality, long endurance ISR - to include FMV and SIGINT- remains one of, if not the most requested and unmet need for the Department of Defense. With our announcement today, all warfighting units and coalition partners can have access to what was once a limited resource, getting this much-needed capability in the hands of the warfighter at a fraction of the cost of any current system available today.’
