Alpha Target Systems is Alpha Unmanned Systems’ newly launched platform to deliver versatile unmanned aerial system-based targets, including the A900T and A800T.

This release is in response to the present era of rapidly evolving defense needs, in which there is a growing demand for innovative target systems that go beyond the representation of simple aerial threats. 

Modern military training requires UAVs capable not only of simulating enemy aircraft but also to serve as system calibration tools. Artillery fire correction aids, missed-distance indicators, radar visibility enhancement, and more are all required. 

These additional capabilities help provide comprehensive support in dynamic training and testing environments. Each of Alpha Unmanned Systems’ helicopter UAV platforms can be equipped with a number of available payloads for a range of advanced military target and calibration scenarios. 

Alpha Target Systems UAVs are specifically designed to simulate enemy aircraft, helicopters, and other threats for realistic defense exercises. They can also be equipped with payloads specifically designed to calibrate and test defense warning systems. 

With encrypted data transmission, fuel-powered engines for greater autonomy and weatherproof performance, the A900T and A800T UAV helicopters enable versatile training scenarios for the development and improvement of modern air defense capabilities.
