Robotican Delivers Gallo Indoor Hybrid Drones to U.S. Defense Group

September 17, 2021

Robotican has announced it successfully delivered its first indoor unmanned aerial system (UAS) to the U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) for operational evaluation. The Isreal-based company, founded in 2013, specializes in autonomous robotics and drones for challenging operational needs.

The Gallo is an unmanned reconnaissance system that enables rapid, live situational-awareness and forward observation in confined spaces, such as subterranean environments or inside buildings. The Gallo is the first hybrid unmanned platform that has both land robot and aerial drone capabilities. Robotican said combining these two disciplines provides an effective tool for a diverse variety of indoor operations.

The Gallo includes MESH communication, which enables the simultaneous operation of three Gallos from the same control unit, relaying communication in indoor, communication-denied environments. The Gallo is designed for military missions, as well as for search and rescue missions in risky environments.

Robotican said a training course was held that included system operation and mission execution for many operational scenarios, such as urban warfare, tunnels, urban and rural warfare, and indoor-mission training.

“We are very thrilled to have concluded our first Gallo delivery and training course with the USSOCOM,” said Hagai Balshai, CEO of Robotican. “It is very exciting to see the fruits of our hard work integrated into an operational unit such as the Special Forces. We are looking forward to more Gallo-system courses and our continued collaboration with the U.S. Armed Forces.”
