Problem
Military and allied forces require short‑range reconnaissance drones that can be rapidly deployed, securely operated, and easily maintained in austere environments, yet many existing systems rely on foreign components, lack modularity, and provide limited data protection.
Solution
Teal Drones delivers a U.S.-manufactured small unmanned aircraft system (sUAS) designed for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions. The platform combines DoD‑compliant hardware with AES‑256 encrypted video and command‑and‑control links to ensure secure data transmission. Its vertically integrated, modular architecture allows quick replacement or upgrade of payloads, propulsion, and batteries in the field, minimizing downtime. The system includes an onboard EO/IR sensor suite and integrated computing for real‑time processing. Operators use the Tomahawk Robotics Kinesis interface, which provides an intuitive launch‑to‑landing experience and supports swappable controller batteries for continuous operation.
Target Audience
Primary customers are U.S. Army and allied defense agencies seeking short‑range, secure reconnaissance drones, as well as government and commercial users requiring rugged, modular ISR solutions for field operations.
