About FLIR Black Hornet PRS

Take your surveillance and reconnaissance missions to the next level with the advanced Black Hornet PRS Airborne Personal Reconnaissance System for Dismounted Soldiers. This high-tech system is designed to provide non-specialist soldiers with immediate, covert situational awareness, bridging the gap between aerial and ground-based sensors.

The Black Hornet PRS is equipped with state-of-the-art EO and IR technology, offering the same situational awareness as a larger UAV and threat location capabilities of UGVs. Weighing less than 33 grams, this innovative drone is extremely light and nearly silent, making it perfect for covert operations.

With a flight time of up to 25 minutes, the Black Hornet PRS is capable of transmitting live video and HD still images back to the operator, providing real-time insights into the battlefield. The system includes a sophisticated Ground Control Station (GCS) with integral UAV containers, requiring minimal training for operation.

The upgraded GCS features removable mission data SD cards, increased processing capability, an improved user interface, robust chargers, and enhanced vision-based navigation. The drone's imagery is transmitted through an encrypted data link with ranges up to 2 km, allowing soldiers to safely engage targets beyond visual line-of-sight.

As the world's smallest and lightest personal reconnaissance system, the Black Hornet PRS is designed to provide autonomous, mission-critical situational awareness. Whether for immediate ISR, covert operations, or beyond line-of-sight reconnaissance, this system is built to save lives and minimize collateral damage.

The Black Hornet PRS is resilient and battle-tested, proven on the battlefield by NATO forces. It is wind tolerant up to gusts of 20 knots (10 m/s) and multi-mission capable with ground speeds up to 6 m/s. Its extremely low visual and audible signatures allow for covert operation and increased security for dismounted soldiers, making it an invaluable tool in complex and urban environments.
