Tanan™ 300 is a tactical UAS with a powerful diesel engine. It is a vertical take off and landing (VTOL) unmanned aircraft especially suited for maritime surveillance.

Two operators can deploy this unmanned aircraft system, also in unprepared areas and at sea.

Large operational area

Tanan 300 can operate at a range of 180 km with a 50 kg payload for more than 8 hours at a time.

Use Tanan 300 for:

1. Maritime surveillance
2. Search and rescue
3. Reconnaissance, surveillance and target acquisition
4. Convoy and VIP protection
5. Harbours and offshore platforms surveillance
6. Providing image and communications intelligence
7. Monitoring critical infrastructure and major events

Choose your sensor

The Tanan 300 unmanned aircraft can be fitted with several types of sensors. For example:

• A combined high definition electro-optical/infrared day and night imaging sensor

• Maritime radar for maritime operations and missions on the coast

• AIS for vessel identification

• Electronic intelligence sensors or communication intelligence sensors.

All sensors can be fitted in several modular configurations. Choose the already integrated payload from Cassidian. Or make your own choice and let us integrate it.

Or choose two payloads

Tanan 300 can carry two payloads, for example a camera and a small radar. This gives more options.

Day and night surveillance

The electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) combi turret ensures stability for high definition images. It can both scan for and track targets.

Detect with maritime radar

Tanan 300 can be fitted with a maritime radar for search, detection and tracking purposes. This radar can detect a 1 m2 target beyond 15 NM in sea state 3.

Identify vessels

The AIS sensor in Tanan 300 can detect

• names of up to 20 characters long

• size of vessel track and location of vessel

for vessels of class A and B.
