Landing Zones Canada Unveils Stealthy New Drone

Landing Zones Canada recently built an efficient, reliable payload delivery drone called the Eagle Advanced Payload Delivery System (APDS). This cutting-edge system is the first balloon-launched drone incorporating high performance with state-of-the-art stealth features. APDS has the potential to change covert, long-range military aerospace capabilities with its excellent performance across extreme weather and operational conditions.  

 This drone operates autonomously, or humans may take control of it through man-in-the-loop settings. Characteristics like these make the drone beneficial for certain military missions requiring tactical support or strategic planning. Thanks to its variable wing profile, the APDS can seamlessly switch from supersonic to low loitering speeds—optimizing its operations while maintaining performance.

"Its variable wing profile allows for transitions from supersonic to loitering speeds. Additionally, its capability to carry various payloads and perform effectively in GNSS-contested environments marks the Eagle as a game-changer for military operations globally," said Landing Zones Canada CEO and founder Spencer Fraser.

It also comes loaded with improved speed and altitude functionality. In this case, the drone reaches stratospheric altitudes and high speeds and endurance. That allows the drone to carry out tactical, strategic, or operational missions even if it's deployed hundreds of miles away. 

Additionally, the company performed flight tests to verify the APDS's high performance. Those demonstrations proved the drone's reliability, versatility, and robustness for military applications. Worth noting, the drone's design ensures survivability and stealth. Due to its low radar signature, the APDS focuses on low observability, which improves survival chances in hostile airspace.
