4 Kingfisher TM Aerostat Surveillance Situational Awareness Communications Research Persistent Aerial Platform Designed for military aerial surveillance The Kingfisher aerostat can operate in difficult environments ranging from high-winds to high-altitudes. The Kingfisher s ability to fly in extreme conditions allows you to be missionready and able to fly when blimps, other types of tethered balloons and many UAS airframes are grounded. The Kingfisher leverages wind velocity into line tension. As wind speed increases, the amount of pull on the tether line also increases. The tension on the main tether provides stability to the payload. 0Operate up to 48 hours continuously (15 minute Helium replenishment cycle) 0Highly mobile aerial platform (open sky; drag the aerostat behind a vehicle or ship) 0Reliable and durable with high-availability for mission deployment 0Low operating costs. Helium is the primary consumable 0Deployed from ships, ATVs, pickup trucks, police cruisers, emergency command vehicles, man-portable teams, HMMWVs

5 Aerostat Launcher Flexible 0Commercial air-freight: 6 x4 x4 at 1000lbs (no cyl.) 0Extending arms detach and fit in Helium bay 0Sling load or Fork lift 0Fits Trailer, cargo HMMWV, pickup truck, ship deck 0Expandable to (10) Helium tank storage (same footprint) 0Self-contained system Reliable, simple to maintain and operate 0Rapid inflation: 7 minutes, deflation blower: 10 minutes 0Outriggers for controlling aerostat during ground operations 0Operation from batteries, recharge from small genset 0Rapid inflation and storage case. (inflate directly from case) 0Intuitive controls for winch, payload, charging 0Small crew size with minimal training (2-3 operators)
