RAIDER X™ can add power to propeller and main rotor to speed up without changing attitude; helicopters have to tilt their main rotor.
Rapid acceleration in constrained spaces, minimizes exposure time to threats.
RAIDER X™’s fly-by-wire control and rigid main rotor enables high agility at low speed.
Enables safe operations in complex, obstacle rich environments close to the ground.
Why It’s Mission Critical
Why It's Special
RAIDER X™’s rigid main rotor allows it to execute turns in half the distance of helicopters.
Decreases engagement time, increases lethality.
Power can be shifted between main rotor and propeller enabling speed well in excess of FARA requirement.
Decreased time traversing the battlespace, reduces threat exposure time.
RAIDER X™ can reverse thrust on propeller to slow descent; no helicopter has this ability.
Increases lethality by increasing capability to place rounds on target.
RAIDER X™ can reverse pitch on propeller to slow down; helicopters have to flare in order to slow down.
Maintains pilots’ eyes and weapons on target all the way to the objective.
Helicopters can’t point nose (up or down) and maintain position at the same time.
Enables pilots to aim sensors and weapons in complex mountainous and urban environments.
Helicopters require a tail rotor during flight for control; RAIDER can turn its propeller on and off.
‘Whisper Mode’ enables RAIDER to sneak up on targets.
Propeller can be turned off and main rotor speed reduced for ‘Whisper Mode’ cruise flight; no helicopter has this ability.
Delays detection by threats, reduces engagement time.
