HT-100 Swiss (4571bf6e-170d-541e-b4f8-9d3a6cf6c718)
The HT‑100 Swiss is a high‑endurance, unmanned rotary‑wing platform built by Edge Group (marketed through its ANAVIA subsidiary). Powered by a 15 kW turbine engine, it delivers up to six hours of flight time with a 60 kg payload while cruising at 120 km/h and operating to 4 000 m altitude. Its dual‑rotor Flettner configuration eliminates a tail rotor, cutting energy consumption by roughly 30 % and simplifying maintenance. Designed for both civil and military missions, the HT‑100 supports ISR, logistics, and communications tasks, featuring fully autonomous take‑off/landing, encrypted mesh‑IP data links (with optional SATCOM/LTE), and a suite of safety systems—including autorotation, redundant actuators, ADS‑B, FLARM, parachute recovery, and detect‑and‑avoid. Its modular airframe enables rapid transport, storage, and deployment from ground, ship, or forward operating bases, making it a versatile VTOL solution for long‑range, low‑signature operations.
