The KillerBee (KB) Unmanned Aerial System (UAS)
is a family of scalable, long endurance, runway
independent RSTA platforms designed to
meet the demand for a low cost, organic UAS.
Currently under development, the first KB
models will be fielded for initial operational
use in early 2006.
The blended wing body shape offers
low acoustic, visual and radar observability
characteristics as well as a large bay capable
of accepting modular payloads. These include
EO, IR and SAR sensors with optional
IR pointer, laser range finder or designator
as needed to meet mission requirements.
