Autonomous Terminal Approach
Takes over the final approach and guides the aircraft onto a designated target at ranges up to 1 km.
Stryke-UAS
Lock On. Stay Locked.
Autonomous terminal approach — Stryke-UAS guides the aircraft onto a designated target at ranges up to 1 km. Because it follows the target visually rather than GPS coordinates, it holds guidance through electronic-warfare jamming and GPS spoofing, exactly where coordinate-based navigation fails.
- Up to 1 km
- Vision-Based
- EW / REB Resilient
- Spoof-Proof
- GPS-Independent
Key Advantage
Coordinate-based guidance fails the moment GPS is jammed or spoofed. Stryke-UAS follows the target itself — visually — so the final approach holds exactly where other systems break.
Lock On and Commit
From designation to impact, the aircraft tracks the target visually — no operator stick time and no coordinate to spoof.
Designate Target
Operator marks the target in the video feed
Visual Lock
Stryke-UAS locks onto the target's appearance
Autonomous Tracking
Holds the target through maneuver and jamming
Terminal Approach
Guides the aircraft onto the target, up to 1 km
What Stryke-UAS Does
Autonomy for the final, most contested seconds of the mission.
Vision-Based Tracking
Follows the target by its appearance in the camera feed, not by a coordinate it's told to trust.
Holds Through Maneuver
Keeps the lock as the target moves, turns or accelerates during the approach.
EW / REB Resilient
No ground-station link in the loop, so active jamming of GPS and command links can't break guidance.
Spoof-Proof
Because it doesn't rely on external position, a falsified GPS signal can't pull the aircraft off target.
GPS-Independent
Operates with no satellite fix at all — designed for fully GPS-denied airspace.
Beats Jamming & Spoofing
Coordinate-guided weapons trust an external position — jam or spoof it and they drift off target. Stryke-UAS trusts only what it sees.
Coordinate-Guided (GPS)
Spoofed → Miss
A falsified or jammed position pulls the aircraft off the target — the closer it gets, the worse the error.
Stryke-UAS Vision-Lock
Locked → Hit
With no external position in the loop, there's nothing to jam or spoof — the lock holds straight to impact.
More Hits, Fewer Aborts
Why a vision-locked terminal approach lands the mission where coordinate guidance can't.
Holds Through Maneuver
Keeps the lock as the target turns, brakes or accelerates — no lost track at the decisive moment.
Corrects to the Last Second
Closed-loop visual guidance keeps adjusting aim all the way to impact, not just at release.
No Pilot Skill Needed
Autonomy flies the hard final approach — the operator only has to designate the target.
Fewer Aborts
No satellite fix to lose means missions aren't scrubbed by jamming or a dropped GPS lock.
Where It's Deployed
Autonomy for engagements where coordinate navigation can't be trusted.
Strike & Interception
Vision-locked terminal approach onto a designated target, holding guidance through jamming and spoofing.
Counter-UAS
Detect and classify small aerial threats against open sky, then cue interception.
Moving-Target Engagement
Hold the lock on targets that move and maneuver.
Precision Approach
Repeatable, hands-off final approach in contested airspace.
From Detection to Lock
Stryke-UAS is the terminal link in the AAD autonomy chain — handed a target by Wield-AI after Mission Autopilot flies the ingress.

On the AAD Flight Stack
Stryke-UAS runs on the AAD flight stack — executing on BattleCore FC7 and driving the airframe directly, with the target feed coming from UCMOS-D or UTIM cameras via EdgeNode AI. Everything stays onboard and air-gapped.
