About K1000ULE

K1000ULE is a fully electric Group 2 aircraft designed for persistent sensing and communications. The fixed-wing configuration provides endurance up to 24 hours, while an electric VTOL configuration provides up to 12 hours and removes the need for a runway or launcher.

The aircraft can operate through line-of-sight, satellite and mesh communications and can be assembled from its transport configuration in approximately ten minutes. ATNE++ adds resilient multi-waveform communications, while MD-ACT coordinates K1000ULE aircraft with other air, land and maritime systems. The platform is Blue UAS cleared and described as production-ready.
