JX2 NG Aerial Target – Veronte Autopilot
Kadet’s JX2 NG Aerial Target is designed for use as aerial targets for weapon
training development, evaluation and as an aerial test platform amongst other
applications. These ready-to-fly solutions include all components needed for
performing fully autonomous missions in harsh environments including Ground
Control Stations, Ground Support Equipment, and Air Vehicle Catapult Launchers.
Kadet Defence Systems range of aerial targets are powered by propellers and
turbojets.
Avdesh Khaitan, CEO of Kadet Defence Systems, noticed an unprecedented
growth in their activities due to new and novel applications emerging in both the
defense and commercial use of UAS. Avdesh stated that “partnering with
Embention allows us to efficiently integrate and continuously improve the
performance of our systems and gives our customers an edge in performance
and operation while simulating hostile attacking scenarios”.
The JX2 NG Aerial Target has integrated the Veronte Autopilot, which provides the
UAV with fully autonomous flight capabilities, versatility and sensor redundancy.
The versatility given by the autopilot allows the Aerial Target to adapt its
configuration to the requirements of different types of operations. Veronte
Autopilot becomes the best option to program target drones, mainly due to its
quality-prices relation, but also due to its ease of installation in drones with either
combustion or turbine engines.
