‘CyberGuy’: The spy in the sky<\/h4>\n

Kurt Knutsson introduces you to the Evolution Eagle, a stealthy and versatile drone that can fly like a real bird of prey and protect the sky from various threats.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Imagine you are walking down the street, and looking up only to see a majestic eagle soaring in the sky. You admire its beauty and grace, although what if you are actually looking at a spy in disguise? That’s right, the eagle you see may not actually be a real bird after all, but a stealthy bird drone that can perform covert missions for the military.<\/p>\n

What is this bird drone?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This is the Evolution Eagle, a cutting-edge drone technology that mimics the appearance and behavior of an eagle but has advanced features such as a high-resolution camera, a GPS tracker, and a silent propulsion system.<\/p>\n

The Evolution Eagle is designed to blend in with the natural environment and avoid detection by enemy radar. It can fly for hours and transmit real-time data to a remote operator. The Evolution Eagle is the ultimate spy in the sky.<\/p>\n

How is the eagle drone inspired by nature?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Evolution Eagle mimics the shape, silhouette, and flight patterns of live birds of prey. This gives it a more covert footprint than other current UAS platforms. By using thermal winds to loiter and circle, the Evolution Eagle can extend its flight duration and save energy.<\/p>\n

The Evolution Eagle can also fly in silent mode, by turning off its engines and gliding on thermal winds. This makes it even more stealthy and undetectable for specialized drone radars and acoustic drone detection units. The Evolution Eagle has a low risk of being spotted by the enemy and can provide overwatch and situational awareness for the friendly forces.<\/p>\n

What can the eagle drone do?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Evolution Eagle is a payload-agnostic platform. This means that it can serve as a base for additional end-user payloads, depending on the mission and the needs. The Evolution Eagle can carry different payloads, such as a daytime camera, thermal camera, C-UAS kinetic interception, and 3D mapping.<\/p>\n

These payloads can provide different capabilities, such as ISR, border protection, public safety, wildlife control, and poacher protection. The Evolution Eagle can also perform C-UAS interception, by using a kinetic device to disable or destroy hostile drones.<\/p>\n

The Evolution Eagle is a portable platform. It comes in a TSA-approved carry case and can be assembled in three minutes. This makes it easy to travel with the Eagle and deploy it within minutes. The Evolution Eagle has a simple launch and recovery method. It can be hand-launched and belly-landed, without the need for a runway or a parachute.<\/p>\n
