1 VTOL Applications for Cargo Deliveries Today UMS SKELDAR David Willems, Head of Business Development 13th June 2017

2 UMS SKELDAR UMS SKELDAR AG Agenda VTOL Applications for Cargo Deliveries Today UNMANNED CARGO INTRO EXISTING SOLUTIONS CASE 1: STRINGING PILOT LINES Concept Key Features Technical Specification CASE 2: EQUIPMENT & TOOLS URGENT DELIVERY Concept SKELDAR V-200 Key Features Technical Specification CASE 3: FOOD DELIVERY Concept

3 Unmanned Cargo Why unmanned cargo? What they can be used for? High value, urgently needed cargo Industrial installations support onshore and offshore Harsh / Hazardous Environment Deliveries Disaster Relief Food drops Medical Aid Medical Evacuation Rescue Operations Etc.

4 Unmanned Cargo Solutions Today MULTI ROTORS FIXED-WING LARGE VTOL PAYLOAD CAPABILITY: +/- 2kg PAYLOAD CAPABILITY: Up to 5kg PAYLOAD CAPABILITY: Up to 2 500kg PROS: - Ease of deployment and use PROS: - Longer mission range and endurance PROS: - Extreme endurance and cargo capabilities CONS: - Limited range and endurance CONS: - Fly by drops are risky - Logistical footprint CONS: - Costly - Complex operation - Large logistical footprint

5 SKELDAR V-200 A realistic option today KEY PERFORMANCE DATA Max Take-Off Weight Overall length (incl. rotor) Rotor diameter Payload capacity Service ceiling Max speed Endurance Typical Mission radius (D/L)* 235 kg/518 lb 5.2 m/17.1 ft 4.6 m/15 ft Multiple Payloads up to 40kg 4000 m/12000 ft 150 km/h/75 kn 5+ hours 90 km / 50 Nm

6 Pilot lines stringing Traditionally done by manned helicopters high-costs risky for both man and machine weather limitations

7 Pilot lines stringing Why Unmanned RPAS Offer real benefits Time Reduced cost Safety Less subject to weather limitations

8 Pilot lines stringing B SKELDAR V-200 Example A Demonstration Location: Norway Client: Transmission lines operator C ->D Mission: Take off from (A), Fly to point (B) Automatically intercept pilot line (C), clip it and fly it to destination (D) Release pilot line

9 Equipment / spares Urgent transport Traditionally done by manned helicopters High-costs Risky for both man and machine Weather limitations

10 Equipment / spares Urgent transport Unmanned Today Tomorrow In the Future

11 Equipment / spares Urgent transport SKELDAR V-200 Example Demonstration Location: Norway Client: Road work company Mission: Automatically take off from Point A with a 30kg payload. Fly to GPS Coordinates (Point B) Hover and Release payload from a safe height

12 Equipment / spares Urgent transport Drop successful Left a nice little crater in the earth

13 Food / Relief delivery Traditionally done by manned vehicles High-costs Risky for both man and machine Weather limitations

14 Food / Relief delivery DRONE DELIVERY $2,000 SAME-DAY GROUND TRUCK DELIVERY $40 The real cost of drone delivery Delivery costs per ton mile AIR FREIGHT $1.37 NATIONAL TRUCK $0.40 Source: Aerotas, Shutterstock

15 Food / Relief delivery SKELDAR V-200 Example Concept Location: A city in a war zone Request: International Organisation Mission Concept: Provide Food Relief to besieged population. Fly a 65km corridor from nearby country border to drop zone. Drop payload safely and return. Huge Challenges: Limited deliverables (qty) high-cost to set humanitarian bridge, Security.

16 In the near future
