COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS // PGA-C1 CARRIER
Beyond the Battlefield
The same airframe trusted for defense ISR — now configured for last-mile logistics, wildfire response, critical infrastructure monitoring, and public safety operations.
DUAL-USE PLATFORM
One Airframe. Multiple Missions.
The PGA-C1 Carrier's modular payload architecture and 100-mile one-way range make it uniquely suited for commercial applications that demand reliable aerial coverage over large or inaccessible areas — without the cost or complexity of manned aircraft.
Swap the payload bay in the field. The same airframe that delivers mail to a coastal island at 0700 can be reconfigured for wildfire IR mapping by 0900. No new aircraft. No new training. No new logistics chain.
MISSION APPLICATIONS
Commercial Mission Profiles
USPS Coastal Island Delivery
Autonomous last-mile mail and package delivery to coastal islands and remote communities underserved by conventional logistics. The PGA-C1 Carrier's expanded 3U letter-sized bay carries packages up to 5 lbs across a 100-mile one-way range. En route, the platform stages through the Pigeon Port — a compact ground station where the aircraft cools down, recharges, and continues its journey autonomously. No ferry. No manned aircraft. No human intervention.
- —Payload Bay: Expanded 3U Letter-Sized
- —Capacity: Up to 5 lbs
- —Range: 100 Miles One-Way
- —Staging: Pigeon Port Recharge Station
- —Sortie: Fully Autonomous
Wildfire IR Mapping
Persistent thermal infrared coverage across active fire perimeters. The PGA-C1 Carrier's IR payload module delivers real-time hotspot detection, fire spread modeling, and suppression asset coordination across a 100-mile operational range — without putting aircrew in smoke.
- —IR Sensor: 1U Thermal Payload
- —Range: 100 Miles One-Way
- —Data: Real-Time Hotspot Detection
- —Crew Risk: Zero
Post-Incident Damage Assessment
High-resolution EO/IR survey of post-fire or post-storm terrain for insurance, recovery planning, and environmental impact documentation. Autonomous mapping sorties cover large areas without operator input, delivering georeferenced imagery packages on return.
- —Sensor: EO + IR Dual Mode (1U)
- —Coverage: Autonomous Area Survey
- —Output: Georeferenced Imagery Package
- —Sortie: Fully Autonomous
Critical Infrastructure Monitoring
Persistent surveillance of power transmission lines, pipelines, water infrastructure, and coastal assets. The Pigeon Port enables continuous autonomous cycling — the PGA-C1 Carrier monitors, lands, charges, and relaunches on a programmed schedule with zero human intervention.
- —Sensor: EO / IR / Multi-Mode
- —Autonomy: Pigeon Port Cycling
- —Coverage: Linear Asset Corridors
- —Intervention: Zero Required
