General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) has just unveiled a new Unmanned Aircraft System called Mojave, named after one of the harshest and most grim areas the world. This drone is based on the avionics and flight control systems of MQ-9 Reaper and MQ-1C Gray Eagle-ER, but focuses more on short-takeoff and landing (STOL) capabilities as well as increased firepower.
Featuring enlarged wings with high-lift devices and a 450-HP turboprop engine, it provides options for forward-basing operations without requiring airport runways or infrastructure. It’s capable of landing and taking off from unimproved surfaces while also retaining significant advantages in endurance and persistence over manned aircraft. The UAS has a payload capacity of 3,600-pounds an d can carry up to 16 Hellfire or equivalent missiles.
