STERLING, VA, May 7, 2025 – AATI has announced the launch of AiRangerX – a certified and deployable AiRanger system designed to operate anywhere within the “National Airspace System” as well as internationally. AiRangerX offers government and commercial users a tested technology platform designed to support operational deployment and mission integration across a range of applications.
AiRangerX provides a surrogate platform to test its technologies, such as AI-powered autonomy, long-range BVLOS operations, advanced sensor integration, and real-time command and control. It supports mission integration and operational readiness without requiring full system deployment.
“AiRangerX represents a breakthrough in how our customers and partners access and experience the AiRanger platform,” said AATI CEO Chris Kluckhuhn. “With this surrogate system, we can now deliver complete demonstrations and mission capability evaluations in record time – anywhere on the globe.”
Accelerating Global Access to AiRanger Technology
AiRangerX replicates the operational architecture of AATI’s flagship AiRanger UAS, enabling mission simulation, training, and evaluation of system capabilities. It is designed for defense, homeland security, infrastructure monitoring, and emergency response partners who need to evaluate uncrewed aerial systems on-site.
AiRangerX offers global deployment within weeks. This allows decision-makers and operators to experiance how AiRanger enhances mission success.
Key Features and Benefits of AiRangerX:
- Rapid Global Deployment: Deployable globally within weeks, providing access to AiRanger’s capabilities
- Surrogate System, Real Results: Demonstrates AiRanger’s autonomy, command-and-control, and sensor integration in live demonstrations.
- Full Mission Capability Demonstration: Enables scenario-based testing for ISR, BVLOS surveillance, disaster response, and border monitoring.
- AI-Powered Autonomy: Demonstrates adaptive mission behavior, route changes and reduced operator workload.
- Sensor-Driven Insights: Simulates live EO/IR, thermal, radar, and other payloads to showcase operational effectiveness in complex environments.
- Interoperability Testing: Supports integration with existing systems, networks, and mission workflows.
Shaping the Future of Airborne Intelligence
AiRangerX reinforces AATI’s commitment on advancing airborne intelligence, autonomy, and mission flexibility. By delivering the capabilities to decision-makers and mission planners, AATI offers a standard for introducing, testing, and adopting advanced UAS technology.
