Wespe Turbine (e7b1833f-7c71-5c9c-a237-65bcbdce2a44)

The Wespe Turbine is a mid‑range, multi‑role cargo UAV developed by Avilus for the German Armed Forces. Powered by a 180 kW turbine, it can carry up to 350 kg (max take‑off weight 900 kg) and fly 300 km at 120 km/h, operating to 5 500 m altitude. Its primary missions are tactical air‑lift, speed‑bag resupply and medical evacuation, providing autonomous, crew‑less transport between rear depots, forward operating bases and naval platforms. A modular payload bay supports electro‑optical sensors, marker systems or a swappable medical cabin, while an optional flare‑based self‑protection suite enhances survivability. The platform features inertial navigation with GNSS‑independent flight, multiple LOS/BLOS data links, NATO‑compatible battle‑management integration, and is fully ITAR‑free and EASA‑certified for civilian airspace use.
