AeroVironment's Puma™ VTOL (vertical takeoff and landing) Kit is designed for plug-and-play integration into Puma AE small unmanned aircraft systems (SUAS). The VTOL Kit expands the operational capabilities of the combat-proven Puma systems in urban environments as no runway or large open space is required for launch and recovery, allowing operators to launch anywhere, anytime.
Available as an add-on option for new Puma 2 AE and Puma 3 AE system orders and as a retrofit kit, existing Puma AE customers can upgrade fielded systems with minimal modifications to the aircraft’s airframe and with simple software upgrades. Removable, the kit will allow operators to transition between fixed-wing and VTOL to suit varying mission needs with a single aircraft.
