V300 Vigil
Product descripton: V300 Vigil by Volatus Aerospace
The V300 Vigil is an ultra-long-endurance fixed-wing UAS designed for persistent surveillance, airborne monitoring, early warning, and strategic ISTAR missions. With a 10 m wingspan, 260 kg MTOW, and heavy-fuel propulsion architecture, it is designed to maintain continuous aerial presence over large geographic areas for extended periods.
The platform offers up to 168 hours (7 days) of endurance and a stated maximum range of 18,000 km, providing a persistent surveillance capability with significantly reduced requirements for frequent recovery and relaunch cycles. Its 60 kg payload configuration is intended to support demanding ISR and specialized mission systems.
Operational Capabilities
- Designed for persistent ISTAR and airborne monitoring
- Multi-day loiter capability
- Suitable for large-area surveillance and early-warning missions
- Designed around defence-oriented interoperability requirements
Primary Mission Profiles
Persistent ISTAR
Extended-duration intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition, and reconnaissance over large operational areas, maintaining continuous aerial coverage without frequent recovery cycles.
Strategic Early Warning
Long loiter endurance enables airborne monitoring and early-warning missions over strategically important regions and extended geographic footprints.
Arctic Domain Awareness
Multi-day endurance supports continuous monitoring of remote Arctic areas, including maritime routes, ice conditions, and territorial boundaries.
National Security Monitoring
The platform can provide persistent aerial observation for borders, coastlines, and other areas requiring continuous situational awareness.
Critical Infrastructure Monitoring
Long-range operations are suited to monitoring geographically distributed infrastructure such as pipelines, power networks, and transportation corridors.
Strategic Payload Capacity
The V300 is designed to accommodate substantial mission equipment, with the stated 60 kg payload configuration supporting the platform’s maximum 18,000 km range. This capacity allows integration of sophisticated ISTAR, airborne monitoring, communications, and specialized sensing systems.
