Port/Border Security
High mission availability gives port and border teams continuous situational awareness
Steady, consistent intel is key to staying on top. Persistent aerial perspective enables agents to
fight drug smuggling, human trafficking, and combat other threats more efficiently.
EO/IR Sensors
Actively search and
evaluate potential threats
Radar
Maintain awareness of all vehicles,
drones, and other objects
Comms Relays
Maintain strong comms signals
so crews can stay connected.
Advantages
1. Increased Mission Availability Altaeros aerostats are operational in higher winds and more challenging weather conditions compared to tethered drones and traditional aerostats, enabling superior operational availability.
2. Technology Agnostic Features a flexible payload bay that can integrate a wide variety of payloads technologies. Multiple technologies can be co-located in one payload to provide a
complete operational solution.
3. Simplified Operation Autonomous aerostats require fewer operators and field technicians than traditional manually operated aerostats
