Why eBee TAC

Fully operational and approved solution

Blue UAS registered by U.S. DoD

eBee TAC is the first fixed-wing approved drone to be added to the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) Blue UAS Cleared List for procurement by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and government agencies.

Systems added to this list do not require a Department of Defense exception to operate, as they have undergone an evaluation of the drone systems’ capabilities, NDAA compliance, operational safety and cyber security.

Used by armed forces worldwide

U.S. Army Engineering and Support
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
 
French Navy
Land Army of France
British Army
Royal Danish Army







Easy to use tactical drone

  • Operated by one person

    Easy to use, easy to train. eBee TAC can be operated by one person.

  • IP67 military transport case

    Easily transported in a hard transport case with STANAG certification.

  • Easy maintenance

    Maintained without requiring external support.

  • 3 minutes deployment

    Standalone and PPK deployment, 3 minutes. With RTK, 10 minutes.

eMotion Flight management software

Easy to use, with advanced features. All the functionality you need to collect and manage geospatial data to act with precision.

  • 3D flight planning

    Plan, simulate and control advanced missions in any terrain, including mountainous areas. Automated flight and landing.

  • Full covert mission

    Covert option allows you to perform silent radio missions with undetectable radio.

  • Live flight plan change

    Easily hold the drone in position, adjust the flight path and/or the landing spot during flight.

  • Multi-drone operations

    Fly up to 4 drones at the same time, all controlled from 1 ground control station.

  • Offline planning

    Fly in disconnected environments thanks to offline background maps and elevation data.

  • Optimized modes

    Horizontal, corridor, point of interest (POI), multiple or fully custom mission blocks.

“Being able to adjust or change the flight plan with eMotion during the flight is one of the most valuable features to us. For example, we recently had to do a mission with our eBee TAC near an aid and rescue helicopter that had 7 minutes to take off in case of an emergency. With eMotion, we were able to clear the helicopter flight area in a couple of minutes, avoiding any potential risk.”

Safe operations

eBee TAC drone meets the highest possible quality and ground risk safety standards and has demonstrated operational safety around people.

  • BVLOS approved

    eBee drones have been granted Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations permission in Brazil.

  • Flights over people

    Approved to run Operations Over People (OOP) in Canada and in the United States.

  • SORA process

    eBee drones are the first to receive M2 Mitigation Design Verification for SORA process from the European Aviation Agency (EASA), essential for advanced operations.

Safety tests

  • Safety impact tests performed to demonstrate operational safety around people.
  • Free from hard front plastic parts and no front-facing motor.
  • Flight planning software integrates fail-safe protocols.
  • Live air traffic awareness with Ping USB accessory.

Rugged and durable solution

Drone underbody skin made of durable Curv® Polypropylene thermoplastic composite. A shock-absorbent construction that endures continuous linear landings without damaging the drone, even in harsh terrain.

eBee TAC has a modular design that allows easy maintenance and fast repairs in the field.


NDAA compliant


eBee TAC is compliant to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) of the U.S. federal law, an essential requirement to prevent maliciously hacking.

The drone components, hardware and software, are not from any of the blacklisted companies or countries, and the connectable solution has been proven cyber-secure.

 

Tactical mapping partnership

ARTEMIS solution created in collaboration with Hexagon US Federal and Tough Stump Technologies.

This Aerial Reconnaissance Tactical Mapping and Imagery System kit available for the U.S. includes the eBee TAC drone, Google Earth Enterprise Platform (GEEP) and can be integrated with situational awareness tools such as ATAK.

Post-processing compatibility

Once the data is collected by the drone, the images are post-processed with a wide range of compatible software to generate the 2D and 3D maps.

FEATURES

Mission ready UAS

Validated cyber-secure

  • Radio data link with AES-256 encryption
  • Drone log file suppression
  • Encrypted SD card
  • Silent radio mission
  • Low visible signature at 300 m / 984 ft AGL
  • Acoustically undetectable at 300 m / 984 ft AGL
  • Integrable with Google Earth Enterprise (GEEP)
  • Designed and assembled in Switzerland
  • 90 minutes flight time

    Efficiently map up to 500 ha / 1,235 ac while flying at 120 m / 400 ft.

    With a flight time of 90 minutes and a flight range of 55 km / 34 mi, eBee TAC can cover large and inaccessible areas.

  • Takeoff weight 1.6 kg / 3.5 lbs

    Thanks to its light weight, eBee TAC fixed-wing has the best ratio energy/MTOW compared to heavier VTOL drones, offering better energy efficiency.

  • 3D and thermal mapping

    eBee TAC swappable cameras allow you to collect data that can be used via the encrypted SD card for analysis and decision-making.

    Camera options include RGB, 3D (patented) and thermal payloads for night flights.

  • 1.5 cm / 0.6 in accuracy

    With the RTK / PPK optional software, the tactical mapping drone achieves an absolute accuracy down to 1.5 cm / 0.6 in, without ground control points (GCPs).

  • MGRS coordinates

    eMotion drone management software for eBee TAC includes the Military Grid Reference System (MGRS), the geocoordinate standard used by NATO.
