BULSPIKE FPV UAV with fibre-optic link for EW-contested operations

Combat Bulspike

FPV STRIKE UAV

The HADES Combat BULSPIKE Family consists of First Person View (FPV) unmanned aerial systems, designed for tactical operations requiring remotely controlled strike platforms. The system is available in two configurations: the L4 configuration with four larger propellers, optimised for extended flight endurance and range, and the S8 configuration with eight smaller propulsion units for enhanced redundancy within the propulsion architecture.

Both configurations are based on a common cascade concept and support multiple payload options, depending on operational requirements. The platforms are equipped with flight control hardware and software developed by HADES and can be fitted with secure communication systems.

BULSPIKE FPV UAV for EW-contested environments

For use in electronic warfare (EW-contested) environments, the BULSPIKE FPV UAV can be equipped with optional fibre-optic communication spools, which enable a direct physical connection between the operator and the platform, thus being resistant to jamming. This makes the system deployable in conditions where wireless connections are unreliable or blocked.

Anti-Tank (AT)
The AT variant is equipped with a PG-22 HEAT warhead capable of penetrating up to 80 mm of RHA armour, making it ideal for disabling armoured targets.

Warhead PG-22

Anti-Personnel (AP)
The AP variant uses an OG-22 fragmentation warhead, intended for soft or unarmoured targets, both in trenches and in open terrain.

Thermobaric (TB)
The TB variant uses a TB-22 thermobaric warhead, designed for clearing enclosed spaces, pillboxes, trenches, or lightly armoured vehicles.

Operational architecture

The BULSPIKE platform is designed for deployment by small tactical units and can be integrated into wider surveillance, command and control, and mission support architectures. By integrating with HDS FUSION and supporting sensor systems, operators can combine aerial reconnaissance, target observation, and mission execution within a single integrated operational environment.
