AVIS-1
The AVIS-1 is a first of its kind, reusable drone emulating target enabling end-users to train point defense methods against sUAS and FPV drones without the associated risks, costs, and laws of using live FPVs as aerial targets. AVIS is a scalable concept allowing end-users to crawl, walk, and run with the associated mounting methods of target stand mounted or aerial tether*. AVIS-1 is specifically designed to represent sub-250-gram camera drones commonly found domestically and abroad.
At the current time, it is illegal to shoot down a real drone within the US. AVIS-1 is not a real drone.
QUICK FACTS:
Approximately 250x250mm / 9.8x9.8" LW
Approx. 275g / .55 lbs.
Rated for 12g bird loads to 7.62x51mm.
SEMI-SELF HEALING
Made from flexible but rigid polyurethane allowing limited self-healing dependent on caliber, impact density, and engagement angle.
Current testing yields 30+ consecutive hits from 5.56 FMJ ball at a 30 degree engagement angle before total failure.
50+ hits from 12 gauge skeet, bird, and turkey shot.
STATIC OR TETHERED MOUNTING*
Static: Bottom opening for standard 3/4" x 1 3/4" target stand stakes.
Tethered: The provided H-harness plugs directly into target allowing quick set up for tethering to real drones, overhead lift, or even a tree branch.
*Tethered mounting is ONLY recommended for professionally trained personnel with use of an adequate backstop or impact/surface danger zone (SDZ). Cardinal Defense Group LLC IS NOT liable or responsible for an injury or damage to others and property caused by the end-user.
