SkyCopes develops sub-cloud VTOL and rotary-wing unmanned systems for defence, security and civil operators, from Ankara.
We build VTOL unmanned aircraft that take off without a runway, fly autonomously below the cloud, and carry the sensors a mission calls for.
Sub-cloud VTOL and rotary-wing unmanned systems for the defence, security and civil sectors.
Global marketing and strategic representation for other defence manufacturers, through an international business network.
Four systems, from long-endurance ISR to precision engagement.
01Fixed-wing VTOL ISR UAV
A fixed-wing VTOL unmanned aircraft for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance. It takes off and lands without a runway and comes in two propulsion types: electric for three hours of flight, or gasoline for eight.
02Multirotor UAS with target engagement
An electric multirotor with a 10 kg payload and a changeable EO/IR camera, built for target approach and engagement within a 15 km operational range.
03Compact fixed-wing UAS with target engagement
A compact fixed-wing system with an EO/IR camera, a 100 km operational range and up to 1.5 hours of flight, with RF, visual and GNSS-based engagement options.
04Long-range fixed-wing UAS with target engagement
A long-range fixed-wing system: 500 km operational range, five hours of flight time and a 10 kg payload, with the same engagement options as the KW-E.
4m
The fixed wing carries the VT-4 in cruise, once its electric VTOL motors have lifted it off the ground.
2m
A compact airframe that two personnel transport, operate and maintain.
4rotors
No runway needed. The aircraft lifts off from confined or improvised sites, on land and at sea.
40kg
A 5 kg payload, with three hours of flight on electric propulsion (Type 1) or eight on gasoline (Type 2).
