Group 1 FPV reconnaissance platform — modular 3D-printed airframe, immersive FPV control, and multi-band GNSS with denied-environment testing in progress.

The sky’s the limit — and we control it.
Elite Aerial Technology designs and assembles Group 1 reconnaissance and long-endurance ISR aircraft in Kansas — built for contested airspace, downrange sustainment, and the operators who fly them.
Platforms
Group 1 tactical reconnaissance and long-endurance modular ISR — engineered for the small-unit fight and the public-safety operator working the same terrain.

Group 1 FPV reconnaissance platform — modular 3D-printed airframe, immersive FPV control, and multi-band GNSS with denied-environment testing in progress.

Long-endurance modular ISR platform — 1280 × 1024 thermal imaging, up to 30 lb payload, and mission-configurable integration for persistent observation.
Why We Build
“The operator downrange should not have to choose between an aircraft that can be sustained and an aircraft that was built here. That gap is what Elite Aerial exists to close.”
Government Engagement
Engaged with DoD sustainment channels, National Guard stakeholders, and OTA acquisition vehicles to field U.S.-assembled UAS. See the full federal program brief →
Active engagement targeting the Army's IBAS program for small tactical UAS capability development. Opportunity in progress.
Positioning U.S.-assembled tactical and ISR aircraft for National Guard readiness and domestic response missions.
Cornerstone Initiative Request package under development to accelerate contracting under 10 U.S.C. §4022 Other Transaction Authority.
Mission Areas
Small-unit reconnaissance and target observation with EO day and optional low-light payloads.
Manual flight without GNSS. Denied-environment testing is in progress to support urban and jammed operating pictures.
Standoff observation to reduce personnel exposure during patrols, perimeter security, and cordon operations.
State, local, and tribal tactical overwatch, search and rescue support, and extended-area situational awareness.
The Company
Elite Aerial Technology is a Kansas LLC that designs and assembles unmanned aircraft in the United States for defense, homeland security, and public safety missions. We are pursuing NDAA sourcing review, Section 889 supply-chain screening, and the AUVSI Green UAS pathway — with domestic motor production planned through our in-house arm, Elite Kinetic Solutions.
Our aircraft are named after the passage that guides the company's purpose.
"By day the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light." Exodus 13:21Read Our Capability Statement
