About Ghost
Ghost is a tandem-rotor autonomous aircraft designed for expeditionary intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance. Ghost cruises for approximately 80 minutes, operates over distances up to 25 kilometres and carries up to 11 kilograms within a maximum take-off weight of roughly 25 kilograms.
The aircraft’s modular payload structure supports electro-optical sensing, communications and mission-specific equipment, while Lattice provides tasking, autonomy and data integration. Tandem rotors offer compact transport and low-speed stability without a fixed-wing launch system. Ghost can be deployed by small teams for targeting, force protection and tactical observation from austere operating locations.
