Altaeros Delivers high performing autonomous aerostats for every mission
All payload partners have been integrated, tested, and validated onboard Altaeros autonomous aerostats. ST-Flex features a modular payload bay that allows integration with multiple payload technologies to empower modern warfighters, border patrol agents, and other government agencies.
Payload Partners
IMSAR
Radar Provider
IMSAR designs, builds, and supports security and intelligence products, and strives to provide manned and unmanned platforms with the best Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) technology possible. IMSAR is dedicated to excellence in rapid technology innovation, manufacturing, and program execution; and remains committed to decreasing size and increasing the capabilities of their radars. Mounting an IMSAR radar onboard an Altaeros ST-Flex autonomous aerostat provides unrivaled mission availability, in all weather, day or night in ground and maritime environments.
L3Harris
EO/IR Camera Provider
L3Harris Technologies anticipates and rapidly responds to challenges with agile technology. On both strategic and tactical fronts, the solutions ensuring a safer tomorrow are being developed at L3Harris today. The WESCAM MX-Series of multi-sensor, multi-spectral electro-optical and infrared (EO/IR) surveillance and targeting systems support intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance and target acquisition missions from platforms across the air, land and maritime domains. These EO/IR systems are found on more than 260 different types of platforms including fixed-wing, rotor-wing, UAV, counter-UAS and aerostat platforms. Combined with an Altaeros ST-Flex autonomous aerostat, customers gain a high-performance gimbal system that can be deployed to monitor persistent threats in less than a day at a height of 1000ft AGL.
