About
RIFT provides governments and industry with persistent aerial surveillance as a service. Its long-range VTOL electric UAVs (5-hour flight time, 300 km range) are armed, launched, recovered and recharged by autonomous ground stations, enabling on-demand aerial intelligence without clients having to own or operate a drone fleet. Use cases include border patrol, infrastructure monitoring (pipelines, power grids), wildfire detection and law enforcement. The aircraft carry EO/IR multi-sensor payloads with encrypted HD live video feeds, triple-redundant flight safety systems and detect-and-avoid capability.
