The RP 333 is a UAV that is designed to be a unique stealth platform. This stealth platform is designed to operate at up to 80,000 feet, an altitude at which most jet engines cough, stall, and quit. At 80,000 feet, six miles above a fighter’s cruising altitude, the sky is almost as black as night, and a UAV could survive at high noon. It has a long flight endurance, measured in days or weeks rather than hours. It can also accommodate very large and sensitive antennas. If you want to locate weak or sporadic radio transmissions—such as cellphones or scattered satellite phones used by insurgent groups—the RP 333is an ideal platform. RP 333.jpg
