Flotation
Device

Water operations present unique challenges for unmanned aerial systems. Manta Air’s specialized flotation devices address these challenges head-on, providing reliable recovery capabilities that protect valuable UAV assets when operating over maritime environments. Our flotation systems represent the culmination of decades of engineering expertise, offering a sophisticated yet elegantly simple solution to water recovery scenarios.

When operating UAVs over water, the risk of asset loss due to emergency landings or system failures becomes significantly higher. Our flotation devices provide essential protection against these scenarios. The system activates automatically upon water contact, providing immediate buoyancy that keeps the UAV afloat until retrieval operations can be completed.

Beyond the practical recovery aspects, our flotation systems play a critical role in regulatory compliance for maritime UAV operations. Many aviation authorities require the ability to recover UAVs for incident investigation purposes, particularly when operations occur overpopulated areas or environmentally sensitive regions. Our systems ensure compliance with these requirements, facilitating thorough root-cause analysis when incidents occur.
