Malloy Aeronautics designs and supplies all-electric uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) to both civil and military customers. Their range of uncrewed, heavy lift quadcopters are capable of lifting payloads from 68kg to 300kg over short to medium range missions. Malloy Aeronautics are a BAE Systems owned entity that form part of our FalconWorks research and development division within the Air sector.
With class-leading payloads, from 68kg to 300kg, The T-Series creates an opportunity for new and disruptive mission types. Runway independent, paired with a compact footprint ensure the T-Series range can fulfil a variety of use cases such as logistics, weapons release and casualty evacuation in all circumstances no matter the conditions.
With zero carbon emissions at the point of use, Malloy Aeronautics has designed the T-Series to revolutionise military operations especially where there is a requirement to carry heavy loads. This helps to keep military personnel out of harm’s way in dangerous situations or disaster zones, whilst providing a low environmental footprint.
With a strong pedigree in complex systems integration and delivery, BAE Systems and Malloy Aeronautics are developing enhanced, assured military capabilities for the T-Series. This includes the introduction of advanced mission planning and management systems, autonomous system capabilities, and sophisticated weapon and payload development and integration. This forms part of the research and development being undertaken through FalconWorks.




With the lowest acquisition, operational and maintenance cost of any 70-ton capable recovery system, HERCULES answers the need for cost-effective, self-supporting heavy recovery performance.
The HERCULES was the primary 70-ton recovery system during Operation Iraqi Freedom. And, U.S. troops found a few other creative uses for its capabilities when they used it to pull down the Saddam Hussein statue in Baghdad on April 9, 2003. HERCULES uses a hull designed for the recovery mission and thoroughly proven by U.S. Army testing. Stability and performance are unmatched by any alternate tank-based design.
HERCULES offers operational and logistics commonality with the existing M88A1 fleet, simplifying training and parts availability. Key upgrades include improved power-assisted braking, improved steering, improved electrical system and increased engine horsepower.
HERCULES features overlay armor protection, ballistic skirts, a longer 35-ton boom, a 140,000-pound (63,504 kg) constant pull main winch with 280 feet of cable, and an auxiliary three-ton winch to aid main winch cable deployment. The M88A2 HERCULES is built and equipped to be the world's recovery champion.
