Paramotor · foot launch

Experience from powered paragliding

Ultra-lightweight design, operational flexibility and a minimal logistical footprint make paramotors an ideal solution for specialised defence, security and rapid-deployment missions. The systems draw on over 50 years of aerodynamic expertise and multiple world records in powered paragliding, and are engineered for both reliability and mission adaptability.

What the platform can do

Five properties make it relevant for rapid deployment:

• Low radar and visual signature through sustained low-altitude flight.
• Tactical mobility: foot launch eliminates runways and prepared surfaces, including from confined or improvised locations.
• Payload: tandem and reinforced configurations carry up to 300+ kg, including personnel, specialised equipment or light cargo.
• Flight envelope: reflex-profile wings reach cruise speeds of 80+ km/h and glide ratios up to 7:1 for efficient ingress and egress.
• Transport: compact enough for vehicle, boat or helicopter — discreet insertion and extraction.

Typical mission profiles

The platform serves reconnaissance and surveillance, rapid-response troop or equipment delivery, special forces insertion and extraction, and humanitarian relief in inaccessible areas. All systems can be integrated with the manufacturer’s emergency parachute solutions, covering safety across all phases of the mission.
