V-150 SKELDAR - UMS SKELDAR

UAV / UAS

Versatile, Multi-role & Mission Ready Unmanned Aircraft System

SKELDAR V-150

Designed to Deliver Intelligence
& Support Tactical Operations.

Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance

UMS SKELDAR’s V-150 is the perfect Rotary Unmanned Aircraft System (RUAS) for Intelligence Surveillance & Reconnaissance (ISR) missions, giving coastal or land-based teams the tactical advantage needed to stay one step ahead of escalating threats. Equipped with an EO/IR, SAR or COMINT sensor combination, the SKELDAR V-150 offers the possibility to monitor infinitely more area when compared to ground-based alternatives.

Law Enforcement

The SKELDAR V-150 can respond to the enforcement needs of a wide range of land border protection, coastal security, fisheries control, anti-piracy, oil and air pollution and anti-smuggling policies. An unmatched small logistical footprint provides easy maintenance, transport, and preparation for take-off in under fifteen minutes from remote sites near non-permissive environments.

Search & Rescue

Highly time-critical maritime and overland search & rescue operations can be accelerated by deploying an EO/IR and COMINT equipped SKELDAR V-150. Fire brigade, mountain rescue, and missing person search crews can benefit from the SKELDAR V-150’s extended endurance and capability of locating survivors following floods, avalanches, and other man-made and natural disasters.

Critical Infrastructure Protection

System Introduction

The unique modular design of the SKELDAR V-150 enables ease of transportability and accelerated maintenance. Its small logistical footprint can be halved for transport and storage thanks to an easily removable tail boom and rotor section. Routine engine overhauls and maintenance are carried out efficiently thanks to one easily removable engine and sub-frame Line Replaceable Unit (LRU).

SKELDAR V-150

Key Features

Multiple Payload
Bays

Nose and centre payload bays enable the SKELDAR V-150 to be equipped with a wide range of easily interchangeable payload configurations, including powerful Electro-Optical and Infrared (EO/IR) sensors in combination with long-range, SIGINT, WAMI, SAR, COMINT or LIDAR payloads.

Excellent Endurance
& Performance

Extensively tested to ensure maximum reliability and performance, the SKELDAR V-150 offers a best-in-class endurance time of five hours. Cruise speeds of up to 120 km/h, making it the preferred VTOL UAS for coastal border surveillance, blue force, and search operations.

Heavy Fuel
Capabilities

Operable on Jet A-1, JP-5, and JP-8 Heavy Fuels (HF), the SKELDAR V-150’s powerplant options have been engineered from the ground up to align with single fuel objectives, making the system compatible within existing operating infrastructures.

Automatic Support
Features

Fully Automatic Take-off and Landing (ATOL) combined with a host of mission automation features allow the Pilot in Command (PIC) and payload operator to focus on safely providing the critical intelligence needed to support vital mission objectives.

Equipment & Serviceability

Support Equipment

The SKELDAR V-150 is supplied with all necessary ground support equipment including a ground vaentilator, power unit, generator, refueling system, fire extinguisher, ground-handling wheels, and all required tools.

Class Leading Serviceability

UMS SKELDAR’s UA’s achieve high Times Between Overhauls (TBO) thanks to superior engine longevity and the use of high-grade components throughout. Routine service procedures can be carried out by technicians in the field without the need for special tools or equipment.

Efficient Ground-Handling

Skid-mounted ground-handling wheels enable efficient pre-deployment maneuverability, preparation, and transportation. Lockable with two pins, ground-handling wheel installation and removal takes seconds and requires minimum effort.

Engine Servicing & Overhauls

The SKELDAR V-150 introduces the industry’s first and only thirty minute engine removal and replacement system. The engine Line Replacement Unit (LRU) can be exchanged by technicians in the field without the need for special tools or equipment.
