Outfit UAVs with Mission-critical Connectivity

Protect national security and enable military operators with airborne connectivity aboard remotely piloted aircraft.

 

Hughes offers a range of airborne connectivity solutions for airplanes, rotary wing aircraft and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), the latter of which serve a critical role in national security and military operations. As in every airborne military theater, UAVs require reliable and resilient Communications-on-the-Move (COTM). New smaller, Class III UAVs need communications systems with low Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) to minimize fuel burn and extend flight duration.

Ideal for Beyond-Line-of-Sight (BLoS) missions, the Hughes HM System enables unmanned aircraft to provide a constant and reliable feed of HD video and other critical real-time data, ensuring airborne situational awareness on sorties across the globe.

With compact, lightweight form factors and durability, HM System modems meet military requirements for situational awareness and Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) aboard RPAs, including:

  • The “Type-Certifiable” Predator® B (TCPB) RPA system, on which the Hughes solution enables increased data transfer rates and secure communications when operating in challenging environments.
  • Smaller Class III UAVs, on which the HM System delivers the highest operational efficiency for customer-specific requirements around security, SWaP and throughput.
