Mission
Designed for Training
Repairable by design
SONORA’s architecture is fully modular, allowing components to be easily replaced or repaired to extend operational life. This design reduces downtime, simplifies maintenance, and ensures long-term value in demanding training environments.
Intuitive operation
Designed for ease of use, SONORA requires minimal training, allowing soldiers to focus on learning how t ooperate a drone rather than managing complex controls.
Mass deployment
Designed for frequent deployment, SONORA provides reliable ISR capability at a fraction of the cost of conventional UAVs, ideal for large-scale exercises.
