Evolve Dynamics Ltd

Evolve Dynamics designs, develops and manufactures mission-specific small Uncrewed Aerial Systems (sUAS), RPAS, aircraft, software, ancillary modules and payloads for Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition, and Reconnaissance (ISTAR). 

Specialising in counter electronic warfare capabilities, Evolve Dynamics works closely with end users to deliver bespoke, long-endurance, all-weather aircraft for emergency services, security and defence. They provide seamless battlefield surveillance and communication solutions based on open standards and interoperability.

Evolve's aircraft systems include its headline capability,  SKY MANTIS 2. An electrically powered quadcopter UAS with advanced ISTAR capabilities, SKY MANTIS 2 is compliant and compatible with NATO STANAG, SAPIENT and Tactical Awareness Kit (TAK). The design of this UAV has been extensively upgraded since the original came to the market in 2017. 

Other aircraft systems include Nano (handheld multipurpose UAS) and SKY MANTIS HEAVY (fully tethered capability able to lift radios weighing up 20kg). Evolve's add on solutions to these systems include:

- Ground Control Station (GCS). This controls the launch, flight and recovery of SKY MANTIS 2.
- Field to Command (F2C). Features real-time video streaming and multiple data feed capability over long range.
- Infinity Tether. Enables 48 hour continuous flight, with a 'hot drop' capability after which the UAV can fly up to 30 minutes.

Gathering information through field observation and utilisation of electronic sensors, Evolve's ISTAR capabilities are instrumental in helping customers better understand their requirements. Their ISTAR ecosystem includes:

- MPU5
- Android Tactical Awareness Kit (ATAK)
- Radio Frequency Scanner
- Doodle Labs Radio Integration
