Carriage and equipment integration for soldier-carried UAS.
A portable UAS needs a workable equipment arrangement around the operator. SHARDANA supports the requirements, concepts, prototypes and evaluation that shape how the complete system is carried, protected and accessed.
What has to fit together
Aircraft
Controller and display
Batteries
Accessories, tools and spares
Personal equipment and protective vest
Development questions
- Who carries which components?
- What needs immediate access?
- How does the load interact with existing kit?
- Which layouts need evaluating?
Weight, volume, balance and handling are assessed for the specific system and user.
How SHARDANA supports
- Requirement review
- Assessment of an existing carrying or protection solution
- Tailored carrying concept
- Prototype iterations
- Structured user feedback
Relevant development experience
Experience in developing and manufacturing tactical equipment, such as a tactical drone backpack, illustrates protection, variable organisation and the accommodation of different components.
Project enquiry
Solutions are developed around the specific system and user requirement. Production scope is agreed as part of the project.
