Group 2 Capabilities, Group 1 Footprint

This ultra-lightweight, hand-launchable, Group 2 aircraft provides unprecedented long endurance by nearly doubling the time on station of Puma 3 AE. It features up to 6.5 hours of flight endurance and a 60 km range when used with the optional Long Range Tracking Antenna (LRTA) and Puma Smart 2500 Battery.

Increased Mission Capability

Puma LE features the Mantis i45 EO/IR gimbaled payload and all environment capability for deployment on land or maritime environments. Increased payload capacity of up to 5.5 lb makes it easy to integrate a variety of third-party payloads per mission requirements into its secondary payload bay with a dedicated power supply and Ethernet.

Interoperability with Puma All Environment UAS

By leveraging the existing Puma RQ-20B and Puma 3 Line Replaceable Units (LRUs), Puma LE allows any current Puma AE Family user to easily upgrade fielded systems.

Bungee Launch System (BLS)

Designed for mission flexibility, the military-grade Puma Bungee Launch System (BLS) expands launch options of compatible Puma aircraft in environmental conditions where a hand launch is limited, and can be set-up and operational in less than 10 minutes.

Optimized Packout for Mission Flexibility

Mission optimization features include an economical dual-case packout that contains everything needed to perform two complete 6.5-hour missions with a single aircraft, Ground Control Station (GCS), and optional Puma Smart 2500 Battery.
