FLY-R SAS is pleased to announce the launch of its new project: the R2-120 "RAIJIN".

The RAIJIN is a drone designed for the role of loitering munition. The efficiency of the rhomboid wing combined with its automatic deployment at the exit of the launch tube makes the RAIJIN a system offering a wide range of speeds and a great autonomy, with an excellent accuracy of final trajectory. All this for a controlled deployment and operation cost.

The deployment of the drone is facilitated by its ability to be launched directly from its transport container also serving as a reusable launch tube and in which it is positioned with the wings folded along the fuselage. The rhomboid wing automatic flight deployment system is an international patent of FLY-R.

The final guidance of the drone towards the target uses algorithms ensuring high accuracy even on moving targets. A high hit success rate is achieved thanks to the flight stability and maneuverability at high-speed of the rhomboidal wing

Recent high-intensity conflicts have proven the usefulness and effectiveness of loitering munitions such as the RAIJIN. FLY-R offers a system based on innovative technology, thus achieving high operational efficiency, both for logistics and for mission success.

The main characteristics of the RAIJIN are:

No pilot in the loop

Fast deployment, 2 operators

Automatic take-off from launching tube (without pyrotechnics)

Automatic unfolding of wing at launch

Flies a pre-programmed pattern. Pattern can be modified in real time from the GCS using operator High level commands

Bi-directional data link with real time video image transmission from aircraft to GCS

IFF system (optional)

Various explosive military payload types can be carried

Mission sensor: night and day camera

Precision final guidance to target: optical / autonomous after target designation by GCS operator

Optional belly landing

Swarm capability
