Quantum Systems Unveils AI-Powered Vector sUAS at AUSA

Quantum Systems has unveiled its latest innovation, the Vector AI, at the AUSA Global Force Symposium & Exposition 2025, announced in a press release. This AI-powered, extended-endurance tactical small unmanned aerial system (sUAS) is designed to enhance intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) operations for maneuver forces.

The Vector AI is equipped with advanced features such as autonomous mission execution, electronic warfare resilience, and real-time AI-driven situational awareness. These capabilities are intended to provide military forces with a decisive intelligence advantage in dynamic and contested environments. The system's modular design allows for rapid integration of third-party sensors, ensuring adaptability and scalability for various mission requirements.

Key technological advancements of the Vector AI include its hardened navigation system against GPS and communications denial, and its dual onboard NVIDIA Jetson Orin processors for real-time object recognition and automated target tracking. Additionally, the system boasts over three hours of continuous flight time, thanks to a redesigned eVTOL power system.

Quantum Systems continues to push the boundaries of drone technology with its focus on AI-driven mission autonomy and interoperability, equipping defense forces with next-generation ISR capabilities to maintain operational superiority in complex missions.
