Attis Aviation, provide UAS solutions for the development, production, licensing, and operation of UAV systems of various sizes and types and more. With a management team boasting extensive experience, the company has successfully completed numerous projects with top UAV industries in the country.
As part of the company’s development and in light of understanding market needs, the company has begun the self-development of the ROC system – a VTOL UAV system with a maximum takeoff weight of 150 kg, intended for flight in both civilian and military airspace.
The UAV can carry a useful payload of up to 40 kg (sensors or logistic payload) and with endurance of over 20 hours. The UAV has a suspension point in the nose for electro-optical payloads and a large payload bay in the body (1.2 meters in length), where a useful load of up to 40 kg can be installed. The system includes a hybrid propulsion system, consisting of electric motors and a jet fuel engine.
The system is designed to civil aviation standards, thereby ensuring the reliability and safety of the system, including the integration of redundancy in critical flight systems (avionics, communications, etc.). The system incorporates means for flight in civilian airspace, thus enabling the execution of missions in the same airspace alongside manned aircraft. This capability is very important when performing Public Safety missions. For example, in firefighting – where the detection and management of the fire can be carried out by the UAV with a 10-15 kg payload, and the firefighting itself can be carried out by manned aircraft, with all platforms flying in the same airspace and interconnected through a control and command center.

Main parameters of the system:
The system enables operational versatility, including operation in GPS-denied environments, maritime environments, urban environments, and more. The system is designed to be operated by a single pilot, and full deployment of the system can be achieved by a minimal team of two people within 30 minutes from arrival at the takeoff point to the aircraft being airborne. The company has developed an innovative tactical deployment concept that allows the aircraft to take off from within the box on the trailer, where the box becomes the takeoff surface.
Tactical deployment concept – Takeoff
The system is intended for the military and semi-military markets (Public Safety).
Mark Kolton, CEO of Attis: “The reason we chose the military and semi-military markets (Public Safety) as initial target markets is the understanding that civilian customers would struggle to adopt a UAV system that has just completed development and has not yet matured. On the other hand, the military customer is accustomed to receiving new UAV systems and integrating them into the unit while maturing the system with the manufacturer. We see great potential for our system with customers such as fire departments, police, border patrol, and more, because these customers often need to operate UAV systems under civilian flight conditions, and our system’s ability to fly in civilian airspace allows for this.”
The system is designed for a low life cycle cost (LCC).
