Svilen Rangelov, Co-Founder & CEO and Konstantin Rangelov, Co-Founder & CTO, Bulgaria-based DRONAMICS unveiled the Black Swan, a new type of cargo-carrying unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that can carry up to 350 kg for up to 2,500 km at up to 50% lower cost than any aircraft.
The Black Swan can operate from runways as short as 400 metres, unpaved, and will enable DRONAMICS to serve customers in even the smallest and most remote communities, an official statement said.
"No longer will anyone be forced to choose between low-cost road freight that can take days to deliver or fast air freight that is ever so expensive. Same day, affordable airfreight is finally here."
DRONAMICS has signed an agreement with Sofia Airport for innovation initiatives, and the Black Swan launch, after six years in development, was held at the airport on a windy, chill evening.
