They provide a mobile, organic tool for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), supporting timely tactical decision-making and increasing flexibility and adaptability. But only the right kind of drone can enable a system of distributed small, secure, smart, and scalable platforms that will offer game-changing advantages to modern defense forces.
Skydio X10, is a drone designed for first responders, infrastructure operators, and the US and allied militaries around the world. It has the sensors to capture every detail of the data that matters and the AI-powered autonomy to put those sensors wherever they are needed. It packs more capability and versatility in a smaller and easier-to-use package than has ever existed.
Skydio X10 enables remote pilot operations and introduces a groundbreaking deployment for law enforcement agencies - Patrol-Led Drone as First Responder (DFR).
Powered by breakthrough AI, the X10 drone achieves unmatched spatial and semantic understanding of environments through 360-degree computer vision. This deep understanding allows X10 to autonomously fly complex missions, inspect infrastructure, track subjects, and capture optimal data with minimal input.
