Key Features

1. Lift and Cruise capability

SE-VTOL has the lift and cruise capability which is mixture of VTOL aircraft and fixed-wing aircraft. Therefore, SE-VTOL does not require runway for takeoff and landing with achieving long rage and endurance.

Lift and Cruise capability

2. Long Range & Endurance

SE-VTOLs have 1,000km range and 10 hours endurance with maximum payload.

Long Range & Endurance

3. Flight control capability (VTOL from/on ships)

High flight control capability realizes takeoff and landing from/on sailing ships.

4. Labor saving with through CoasTitan

With UxV control software called CoasTitan developed by MHI, simultaneous various UxV control can be achieved with a minimal crew.
