Duke Robotics Presents TIKAD Combat Drone Equipped with Innovative Stabilization Technology

Duke Robotics, a leader in robotics technology and drone solutions, introduces TIKAD, an innovative military UAS octocopter drone with a mounted lightweight firearm and advanced stabilization technology. TIKAD features a lightweight robotic gimbal with the unparalleled ability to carry and stabilize payload recoil up to three times its weight.  In addition, TIKAD’s gimbal offers real-time, 6 DOF (degrees of freedom), a capability that provides an advantage to U.S. and allied forces in combat. 

TIKAD advances military strategy by integrating an aerial support system into combat missions.  The UAS drone can engage with troops or lead precision strikes without the need for intrusive action.  TIKAD can be used in various military applications including border patrol law enforcement, drone on drone warfare and counter terrorism.  

According to a recent report, Fortune Business projects the military drone market to reach $21.76 billion by 2026, at a CAGR of 12.4% during the forecast period.   The report says, “Advanced defense technologies, such as artificial intelligence, 3D printing, multi-sensor data fusion for UAV navigation, cloud computing-based services for military UAVs, and technological advancements in drone payloads are expected to support the market growth during the forecast period. mid-air refueling of drone, and anti-UAV defense system are the major upcoming trends in the military drone market.”
