AirCAT 270 / 400 270 Version : 2,74 m 400 Version : 4 m 270 Version : 42 kg 400 Version : 53 kg Endurance 12 hours is a surface drone designed as an inflatable catamaran, capable of operating in either teleoperated or fully autonomous modes. Ultralight, it weighs only 42 kg (270 Version) or 53 kg (400 Version) and can carry up to 180 kg, achieving a payload-to-weight ratio of over 300%. Its ultra-durable PVC structure with double inflatable tubes ensures optimal buoyancy, even in the event of a puncture in one of the tubes. Easily transportable, AirCAT can be packed into a bag and two cases with dimensions that comply with the standards for checked luggage on airplanes. Once deployed, it measures 2.74 m in length and 1.54 m in width (standard version) or 4 m in length (400 Version), offering excellent stability on both inland and coastal waters up to Beaufort 3. Its modular LiFePO4 battery compartment allows adjustable endurance ranging from 4 to 12 hours. ONBOARD ELECTRONICS Equipped with an onboard PC, an open architecture, and a high payload capacity, AirCAT can integrate a variety of sensors (single/ multibeam echosounders, side-scan sonars, sediment profilers, ADCPs, multiparameter probes, Lidar, etc.) with real-time data visualization capabilities. AirCAT is equipped as standard with a 100 Ah 24 V LiFePO4 battery, providing an average endurance of 4 hours. This can be doubled (8 hours) or even tripled (12 hours) with additional batteries, thanks to its high payload capacity. AirCAT features an HD color camera mounted on a 360° turret and navigation lights. Optional equipment includes an AIS system and an obstacle avoidance function. Its autonomous navigation software supports point-to-point routing, waypoint following, station-keeping, and return-to-base functionality.
