Thales' Mini Unmanned Aerial Systems for ISR Missions

In early 2024, Thales and the French start up Aeromapper joined forces to address the armed forces' need for contact drones. This partnership enhanced Thales' role as a drone integrator, while Aeromapper maintained its innovative capabilities, bolstered by Thales' strong export presence. NOCTUA 200, NOCTUA 300 and GRIZZLY 400 drones are now part of the Thales solutions portfolio, alongside the SPY'RANGER 330 and 550.

Thales' contact drones are lightweight, robust, and stealthy mini drones offering a modular payload capacity (IMINT/SIGINT). This latest generation of mini drones incorporates cutting-edge technology, equipped with high-resolution sensors, a reliable and secure data link, and a powerful imaging system. They provide the continuous surveillance and early detection of anomalies . Already battle-tested, these mini drones are also designed for use in harsh environments: from very hot to very cold temperatures, very high to very low altitudes, and all types of terrain.
