In addition, according to the manufacturer, the UAV can be configured to extend the range of smaller air-to-air missiles or air-to-ground” such as Brimstone or Hellfire. The UAV is capable of delivering a missile to a distance of more than 320 kilometers, hovering in place until receiving a command, and then releasing the missile to finally destroy the target.
The Razor can reportedly take off from a 3 x 3 meter pad, reach speeds of up to 805 km/h and operate at altitudes of up to 6,000 meters. Among other features — navigation and control using artificial intelligence without GPS.
“As a multi-purpose, dual-purpose technology, Razor is already changing the way military commanders and civilian leaders think about autonomous VTOLs,” — said Mayman Aerospace CEO David Mayman.
Mayman Aerospace Chief Engineer Dr. Manu Sharma added that the UAV had completed seven autonomous missions during the tests. He stressed that all systems worked perfectly as planned. The main purpose was to test the latest software and flight control updates.
It is also reported that the Razor — it is a fully scalable device. Currently, Mayman Aerospace plans to develop P100, P500 and P1000 variants with payloads of 45 kilograms, 227 kilograms and 454 kilograms respectively. Production and sale of the P100 is planned for 2025.
