Imagine having your own aerostat. That’s exactly what LTAS offers. It can support not only EO/IR sensor pods but also communications relay.

Additionally, they offer a mast mounted ISR system as well as a unique tethered rotary wing unmanned aircraft system. Available in two models the Electric Tethered Aerial Platform and Liquid Tethered Aerial Platform are both tethered for fuel as well as data via the umbilical. That’s right, the launcher pumps either electricity or a combination of fuel and air to the UAS so it can stay aloft indefinitely. It can also stay aloft while the trailer mounted launcher is moving so it can be integrated into a convoy for overmatch and comms relay.
