Logistics

Autonomous, long-range logistics lift that operates beyond
the limitations of roads, terrain and traditional rotary-wing aircraft

Critical Resupply

In today’s complex, contested environments, the ability to deliver critical supplies rapidly, precisely and without risking personnel is mission-defining. CAPSTONE is designed to meet that challenge, providing autonomous, long-range logistics lift that operates beyond the limitations of roads, terrain and
traditional rotary-wing aircraft.

Precision, speed and minimal footprint

Tested in the harshest field conditions, CAPSTONE delivers up to 600 lbs of payload in a single mission, reaching forward-deployed units with precision, speed and minimal footprint. Whether you are resupplying water and ammunition, evacuating casualties or powering remote teams, CAPSTONE brings logistics certainty to uncertain environments with payload flexibility.

Range options:

  • 200 lbs over 125 miles (200 km)
  • 600 lbs over 42 miles (70 km) radius of action

Modular carriage

  • Internal pod: 250+ kg, 2.4m x 1m x 0.8m, 1.92m³
  • Compatible with half-height JMIC & SkyHook systems

Delivery modes

  • Underslung, winch, pickup, drop-off or airdrop

Smart integration

  • Power & data interfaces and sensor payloads

System Interoperability

CAPSTONE is designed for seamless integration with NATO and UK defence infrastructure. From standardised mounting solutions (including 14” NATO BRU lugs and SkyHook compatibility) to software-defined radios, every system is aligned with military communications, control, and deployment protocols. This ensures rapid uptake into allied forces and coalition operations—without bespoke ground infrastructure

Autonomy Stack

Built for real-world autonomy, CAPSTONE executes BVLOS missions with minimal operator input, adapting flight behaviour to terrain, weather, and electromagnetic conditions. It features modular flight logic, fault tolerance, and layered mission control—including self-recovery, re-tasking, and GPS-denied rerouting. The autonomy stack integrates seamlessly with ISR sensors, CASEVAC payloads, and strike systems for full-spectrum mission control.

Life-Saving Missions

When time, terrain, and threat levels make traditional casualty evacuation impossible, CAPSTONE delivers. Autonomously deployed to the point of need, it bridges the gap between frontline injury and medical intervention without putting additional lives at risk and enabling low-risk casualty extraction with integrated life-support payloads.
