We have developed an amphibian UAV that automatically takes off and lands on the surface of the water and navigates automatically.

Developed flying boat UAV “Hamadori 3000” (3.1 x 2m) and “Hamadori 6000” (6 x 4m).

Toward certification for BVLOS:

A total of 4 machines have been built so far.

First, we aim to obtain BVLOS flight certification for Hamadori 3000.

Equipped with long-distance flight capability and heavy load:
It has a payload capacity of 300 kg and a cruising range of 500 nautical miles.
It has a turboprop engine. It is a multi-role aircraft that can be used for various purposes such as observation, transportation, security, and rescue.
The fuselage is twin-hulled. A payload pod such as a cargo, winch, and sensor is suspended in the center of the main wing.

The aim is to develop an automatic take-off and landing aircraft that can hydroplane even when there are 3-meter waves on the sea surface.

It will be equipped with a large amount of equipment and will be able to fly and transport to the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ).
