Raj Process is developing a fixed-wing VTOL UAV platform with an initial maximum take-off weight of up to 30 kg, marking the company's entry into the UAV market.
A scalable development programme focused on connected operations, secure data transmission and future higher-capacity aerial platforms.
Raj Process is expanding its engineering capabilities into unmanned aerial systems through the development of a fixed-wing vertical take-off and landing UAV. The initial platform is being designed with a maximum take-off weight of up to 30 kg and serves as the company's entry product in the UAV market.
The programme is structured as a scalable technology pathway. The long-term vision is to progress towards higher-capacity drone platforms for logistics and personnel carrying, with a future target capacity of up to 500 kg.
Combining fixed-wing cruise efficiency with vertical take-off versatility, designed for connected operations, secure data links, and multi-mission field adaptability.
A phased engineering strategy scaling from initial tactical platforms to heavy-lift personnel and logistics drones.
| Development Stage | Programme Direction | Wording |
|---|---|---|
| Initial Platform | Up to 30 kg maximum take-off weight | Entry platform for the UAV market. |
| Long-Term Roadmap | Progress towards higher-capacity drones up to 500 kg | Future development for logistics and personnel-carrying applications. |
