01
Solar augmentation
Integrated energy capture supports extended operating profiles where the validated airframe and environment permit.
Aerial system / D2
Sentinel
A solar-augmented persistent VTOL concept for extended observation, ISR, perimeter and infrastructure missions.
Concept definition · engineering validation required
D2 Sentinel combines persistent sensing with mission-aware energy management.
Mission role
Endurance managed against mission success.
02
Energy intelligence
Power demand, payload use, weather, reserve and mission phase are treated as one decision context.
03
Persistent awareness
Progressive memory and Peripheral Intelligence Vision preserve focus while monitoring adjacent change.
Any endurance outcome depends on validated aircraft mass, solar yield, storage, payload, weather, flight profile and regulatory constraints.
Operating pathway
Persistent—not unbounded.
