AEVEX’s Group II Atlas Loitering Munition is a combat-proven tactical UAS with exceptional performance characteristics. Our systems are composed of lightweight materials to achieve optimal payload-to-GTOW ratios and increased striking distances equal to many Group III aircraft. Recent real-world operations have yielded mission impacts far outperforming the competition.

During the demonstration, AEVEX will showcase the Atlas Group II launched effect, a lightweight and agile system built for precision missions directly supporting frontline troops. The Atlas system demonstrates AEVEX’s ongoing focus on developing innovative technologies that address evolving threats and mission needs.

"AEVEX Aerospace is honored to collaborate with the U.S. Army in demonstrating the capabilities of our groundbreaking Atlas system," said Brian Raduenz, CEO of AEVEX Aerospace. "Our participation in the demonstration is a great opportunity to show the ops community the realm of the possible, and it underscores our commitment to advancing the precision, autonomy, and lethality technologies that they need in the fight."

Soldiers from various Army units, including field artillery, infantry, and aviation, will test the Atlas system to refine tactics and procedures. Their feedback will help shape how the Army uses launched effects in the future, guiding requirements and operational strategies.
