Solar Impulse 2
This world-renowned aircraft operates as Skydweller’s test bed, enabling flight testing and rapid development.
Skydwellers are made out of carbon fiber, have a wingspan the size of a 747, can carry up to 800 pounds of payload, and are capable of uncrewed perpetual flight, typically staying aloft for 30-90 days or longer.
Our customers are planning to deploy Skydwellers for long-duration missions like detecting drug smugglers and pirates at sea, providing continuous aerial coverage above war zones, surveilling naval activity in contested waters without risking flight crew’s lives, and tracking wildlife migration and poaching in Africa.
