Platforms · The HITBIRD range
One system. Every airframe.
Every HITBIRD is a machined-aluminium flying wing — no moulds, no closed geometry. Each cell flies several real operating points, so payload, range and speed trade against each other without changing the airframe.

Aluminium airframe
Why the HITBIRD is based on an aluminum chassis. Many sensor integrable, no mould lock-in. Each HITBIRD airframe consists of a single, all-metal structure made from aerospace-grade aluminum (EN AW 2024), cut directly from the 3D model using a CNC laser. The digital design serves as the manufacturing file: there is no mold making, no templates, and no manual steps where errors might creep in. This enables fully scalable serial production at minimal cost and allows the same basic structure to be used for models ranging from the HD.300 to the HB.1050.
The EN AW 2024 alloy offers an aerospace-proven strength-to-weight ratio and high fatigue resistance. It withstands real-world loads without adding unnecessary weight and behaves predictably because it is cut rather than cast. The airframe features an open design with a replaceable outer skin and a modular structure: the interior is accessible, payloads can be bolted on directly, and damaged panels can be inspected, replaced, or re-cut—eliminating the risk of a total airframe loss. Creating a new model variant requires only a new cutting file, not new molds, jigs, or assembly fixtures.
Regardless of the mission—whether reconnaissance, defense, or active engagement—the same laser-cut EN AW 2024 airframe can be flexibly adapted to specific sensors and requirements. No new tooling or closed geometries are required.
