SWATS (Small Unmanned Aerial/Aircraft Systems Tactical) are small drones used to protect troops in combat zones by providing immediate, overhead situational awareness. These portable UAVs are deployed at the squad or platoon level to scout ahead, scan for ambushes, identify enemy positions, and assess routes without exposing soldiers to direct fire. By giving troops “eyes in the sky,” SWATS significantly enhance force protection, improve decision-making, and reduce the risk of casualties during patrols, convoy operations, and in complex urban environments where threats can be hidden.

  • Small, man-portable drones (like the PD-100 Black Hornet or FLIR SkyRanger) for platoon-level ISR.

  • Provides real-time video feed to a handheld ground control station.

  • Used for route reconnaissance, overwatch, building clearance, and damage assessment.

  • Quiet and low-visibility design to avoid detection.

  • Extends the sensory range of dismounted infantry, enhancing survivability.

  • A standard piece of equipment for modern infantry squads in advanced militaries.

Extend your squad’s vision. Deploy SWATS (tactical micro-drones) from Tactical Supply Pakistan to protect troops and dominate the battlefield.
