THE MISSION · CIV-02
SEARCH & RESCUE SUPPORT
A thermal sweep of a corrie takes minutes, not a rope team’s afternoon — and the sorties that matter most start after dark. Vertical launch from the rescue base, fixed-wing transit to the sector, and a navigation stack that holds its own estimate in the glens where GNSS gets marginal.
PAYLOAD
EO/IR thermal core + ASTRUM SPAD low-light array — single-photon sensitivity for moonless-sector sweeps, inference on the edge
