Silent Falcon Begins Initial Production

Company Transitions To The Production Phase Of Its Unmanned Aircraft System

The Silent Falcon is a solar/electric, all composite, modular small Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) with an interchangeable wing configuration designed for commercial, public safety and defense applications.

In 2010, Bye Aerospace created what is now SFUAS, capitalizing the company with a prototype electric unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and initial design work on solar electric hybrid propulsion. The combination of efficient aerodynamic design, lightweight composite construction and advanced solar energy collection gives the 25 lb. Silent Falcon UAS a 6 to 12 hour flight endurance.

"We are extremely pleased with the Silent Falcon development progress," said George E. Bye, CEO of Bye Aerospace and Chairman of the Board of SFUAS. "With Silent Falcon's production, SFUAS has aligned its global sales, marketing and distribution functions, giving customers access to the Silent Falcon UAS for the first time."
