Remora – Agile Threat Simulation at Scale

Rapidly deployed, vertically launched, or air-dropped, Remora replicates short-range diving threat profiles with speed, agility, and affordability

Overview

Remora was purpose-built as a low-cost, expendable Group-1 target system engineered to challenge sensors, interceptors, and operators in realistic short-range engagement scenarios. Compact and rapidly assembled, it can be launched vertically or deployed from larger aerial target platforms, enabling flexible integration into multi-threat training and test events.

Key Features

  • Group 1 Class

    Lightweight, portable system with moderate loiter time and high sprint speeds.

  • Diving Threat Replication

    Capable of simulating short-range dive attack profiles encountered in operational environments.

  • Flexible Launch Modes

    Supports vertical launch or release from a larger aerial target.

  • High Attrition Affordability

    Designed for cost-effective replication in large-scale training or test campaigns.

  • U.S.-Manufactured

    Domestic design and production ensures compliance and supply chain security.

Use Cases

Primary
  • Counter-UAS training against short-range, diving profiles

  • Weapons system testing requiring expendable Group-1 surrogates

  • Range events needing massed or multi-vector threats

  • Operator proficiency and reaction training

Secondary
  • Homeland defense and infrastructure protection training

  • Joint/coalition exercises requiring scalable Group-1 replication

  • Research and experimentation on short-range engagement tactics

Advantages

  • Rapid Deployment

    Assembled and fielded quickly, ideal for short-notice test events

  • Cost-Effective at Scale

    Supports high attrition rates without prohibitive expense

  • Threat Realism

    Replicates speed and dive profiles not achievable with repurposed hobby drones.

  • Deployment Flexibility

    Vertical launch or integration with larger platforms extends use across scenarios.

Competitive Contrast: Unlike commercial drones with limited profiles, Remora is purpose-engineered for destructive engagement and repeatable short-range threat replication

Acquisition Pathway

Remora is available to U.S. government customers, prime contractors, and authorized partners. It can be procured through existing pathways such as the Defense Logistics Agency’s Special Operational Equipment Tailored Logistics Support Program (TLS/SOE), or via direct contracting methods.

Agility. Affordability. Realism.

Remora brings rapidly-deployable, expendable Group-1 realism to counter-UAS training and test events.
