By Defence Industry Europe

Ukrainian unmanned aerial systems (UAS) manufacturer Skyeton has introduced its latest payload developments at XPONENTIAL Europe 2025. The company presented Remora, a gliding munition, and the GLE series of multi-mission gimbals, expanding its portfolio of advanced aerial solutions.

 

Alongside its flagship Raybird small UAS (sUAS), Skyeton showcased Remora, a high-precision, long-range munition designed for tactical UAV operations. Equipped with cumulative, high-explosive fragmentation warheads weighing between 1.5 and 2.5 kg, Remora offers real-time command guidance and terminal targeting for maximum accuracy.

The munition reaches a post-release velocity of 140 km/h, allowing UAVs to strike deep into enemy territory while remaining undetected. CEO Roman Knyazhenko highlighted that Remora is the first gliding munition designed specifically for small tactical UAVs under 25 kg, enhancing their operational flexibility and impact.

Skyeton also introduced its GLE-6 and GLE-7 gimbals, designed for surveillance and targeting in high-stress environments. These optical-electronic systems feature three advanced sensors: a global shutter EO sensor, MWIR (mid-wave infrared) sensor, and a laser rangefinder, ensuring comprehensive situational awareness.

The GLE series provides real-time video transmission, independent bitrate controls, and UAV telemetry integration via Mavlink, enabling seamless operation in modern combat scenarios. Additional features include MicroSD storage, energy buffering for safe recording termination, and adaptive streaming capabilities.
