Sikorsky introduced a containerized system that can deploy four autonomous Nomad 100 VTOL drones from locations without conventional airport infrastructure.
The Nomad 100 Fast Pack combines the aircraft and their operational support systems in a single 20‑foot shipping container, including mission‑control software, communications equipment, power systems and maintenance supplies, and allows operators to prepare two aircraft for missions in less than 15 minutes while the remaining two could be ready within four to six hours; the package is intended for deployment aboard naval vessels, at military staging areas and from improvised landing zones, and can be repacked and transported to another location after a mission.
