Elistair Revolutionizes Milipol With Game-Changing Drone System
At Milipol 2025, Elistair will unveil its latest innovation in tethered drone systems: the Khronos Dual Payload configuration. This game-changing setup combines a Silvus StreamCaster 4200P tactical radio with a Nextvision DragonEye2 electro-optical camera, transforming the Khronos into a multi-mission aerial mast that can provide both secure communication relay and persistent surveillance capabilities on a single platform.
The Khronos Dual Payload configuration is designed to meet the growing demand for multi-function aerial assets in today’s complex operational environments. By integrating a Silvus StreamCaster 4200P tactical radio, operators can extend their tactical mesh networks, maintaining continuous and resilient communication links even in GPS/GNSS-denied or RF-challenged areas. Meanwhile, the Nextvision DragonEye2 electro-optical camera delivers day/night object tracking, long-range zoom, and stabilized imagery for real-time, actionable intelligence.
The dual role of the Khronos Dual Payload reflects Elistair’s commitment to adapting its technology to meet the evolving needs of its customers and modern battlefields. With the increasing importance of persistent surveillance and secure communication relay in tactical operations, this new configuration is poised to become an essential tool for special forces and deployed military units.
Designed for rapid deployment, the Khronos Dual Payload can reach operational altitude in under two minutes, making it ideal for responding quickly to emerging situations or adapting to changing operational environments. The microcable tether provides continuous power and data transmission, enabling up to 24 hours of uninterrupted flight at altitudes up to 60 meters.
This endurance supports a range of tactical missions, including border security, perimeter monitoring, event protection, and more. Whether deployed in GPS/GNSS-denied or RF-challenged environments, the Khronos Dual Payload can provide reliable and continuous aerial coverage for wide-area surveillance and communication relay.
One of the key benefits of the Khronos Dual Payload is its ability to act as both a communications relay and a surveillance node. This multi-mission capability makes it an attractive solution for defense and security units seeking integrated solutions that can support multiple tactical operations. By integrating both secure mesh networking and stabilized day/night aerial imaging on a single platform, Elistair has created a truly versatile aerial asset that can adapt to a wide range of operational scenarios.
The Khronos Dual Payload’s unique combination of secure communication relay and persistent surveillance capabilities makes it poised to become a game-changer in the world of tactical operations. With its rapid deployment capability, microcable tether, and multi-mission functionality, this platform is designed to support a variety of tactical missions, from border security to event protection.
Elistair’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge technology that meets the evolving needs of its customers has positioned the company as a leader in the aerial surveillance and communication relay market. The Khronos Dual Payload configuration is just one example of this dedication to innovation, reflecting Elistair’s focus on adapting its technology to meet the changing demands of modern battlefields.
