Swarm Systems Ltd

Swarm Systems designs and builds ‘Sub-250g’ military UAS for reconnaissance and remote viewing. Working directly with users, Swarm Systems has developed Owl 4. It is particularly suited to supporting troops on the move who need real time information about the surrounding area. With Owl 4, a user can remotely monitor an area of interest from the air, out of sight and out of danger. Swarm Systems is 10 years old and has approaching 50 person-years of research and product development experience in the field of small Air Vehicle systems. The Owl 4 is Swarm Systems’ 4th generation of Owl UAS, but Owl 4 will be the first UAS launched as a product. Owl 1 was flown as a swarm at the MOD Grand Challenge in 2008. Owl 2 was a step down in size and Owl 3 has been used in many project demonstrations and trials since 2014. The first order for Owl 4 has already been received, with delivery scheduled in 2017. Swarm Systems has won over 15 research contracts to deliver innovation in the military Nano UAS market. In 2008 Swarm Systems was a winner in the MOD Grand Challenge. Swarm Systems has won MoD contracts in the AMS DE-RISC (plug 'n play), ASUR (Autonomous Systems Underpinning Research) and Autonomy competitions. Swarm Systems has partnered with each of the UK Prime Contractors.
