Magura
Magura is a tactical ISR UAV built for persistent, dual-use awareness. The same near-silent electric endurance and stabilized optics that give commanders a real-time picture of the front line also watch for wildfires, coordinate search-and-rescue, and survey flood and disaster zones. Magura streams photo and digital video, navigates from ground-based radio beacons in GPS-denied conditions, flies autonomous missions, and is hand-launched from a rubber catapult, runway-independent, affordable, and quick to deploy. It switches frequency bands and video channels in flight and runs a dual control link with automatic band selection, so the picture stays up in contested spectrum.

Magura airframe
Blended flying-wing. Catapult-launched.
A blended flying-wing with a stabilized EO/thermal payload, hand-launched from a rubber catapult and recovered without a runway, quiet, long-endurance, and affordable, with a solid 120-minute air time.
Blended flying-wing
Clean, low-observable planform with an internal payload bay and long-endurance aerodynamics.
Stabilized optics
Photo and digital streaming from a stabilized EO/thermal payload for real-time imagery.
GPS-denied nav
Navigates from ground-based radio beacons, holding position and route when GPS is denied.
Cased & catapult-launched
Runway-independent: Magura ships in a padded transport case and hand-launches from a rubber catapult, ready in minutes.
Also in the ISR line
Grey Widow: long-range loitering ISR
A second set of eyes for the line: where Magura is a catapult-launched flying-wing for standoff overwatch, Grey Widow is a long-range loitering platform that reaches deeper and stays up longer.
Grey Widow
Grey Widow extends the ISR line's reach. With a 50 km range and an hour on station, it holds persistent overwatch across a sector, flying its search pattern autonomously on TG autopilot and streaming reconnaissance back over an EW-resilient, frequency-agile datalink with a back-up connection link. Built on the same proven Asymmetrica airframe family as Magura, it is a dual-role reconnaissance / loitering-effect platform, carrying a modular payload: reconnaissance optics for standoff surveillance, or a mission-configured effect, subject to export and end-use controls.
- Long-endurance loiter for overwatch
- TG autopilot: autonomous search patterns
- EW-resilient link with back-up channel
- Frequency-agile, in-flight band switching
- Modular reconnaissance / effect payload
- Safe remote activation
Operated By
Flown by Ukrainian units
Through Iron Shield's Ukrainian joint-venture partners, the Magura and Grey Widow platforms are fielded with frontline Ukrainian reconnaissance and FPV air formations.
