DIODON HP30

Waterproof. Inflatable. Robust. Compact.

Master the Elements

The DIODON HP30 is built to operate where conventional UAVs fail. Developed through years of real-world feedback and continuous input from special forces and maritime professionals, this platform has been deployed globally across elite defense and security networks since 2022.
Its defining strategic advantage is its fully waterproof, inflatable airframe. This revolutionary design fundamentally reduces the risk of loss due to water exposure, allowing operators to reliably deploy and recover the system directly from the surface of the open sea—even in high-humidity, saltwater, and rapidly evolving weather conditions.

Engineered for Maritime Dominance

Autonomous Self-Righting

Never lose a payload to the waves. The HP30 is engineered with an autonomous self-righting capability. If the drone is flipped by severe wave action during surface deployment or recovery, it automatically rights itself on the water and resumes operations without any external intervention.

The Navalized Platform

Hardware and software built for the sea. The HP30 features highly resilient components and a maintenance architecture specifically adapted for maritime realities—overcoming limited vessel storage, constant salt and water exposure, and unstable offshore winds.

Day & Night ISR Payload

Unblinking aerial oversight. Outfitted with top-of-the-range Electro-Optical and Infrared (EO/IR) sensors, the HP30 excels at target detection, identification, and tracking in low-light and degraded weather. Thermal imaging cuts through sea haze, spray, and total darkness.

DIODON GCS MK.2

Total control in the storm. The Ground Control Station is fully waterproof, sealed, and robust enough to withstand rain and salt spray. Designed via continuous operator feedback, the glove-compatible interface drastically reduces cognitive load, enabling fast, precise control in high-stress scenarios.

Mission-Ready Applications

Coastal Surveillance

Enable persistent monitoring of complex coastal areas. Rapidly detect, identify, and track illegal trafficking, unauthorized fishing, or environmental pollution.

Search & Rescue (SAR)

Provide rapid, time-sensitive aerial visibility to locate survivors in the water, monitoring evolving situations and coordinating massive rescue efforts from the sky.

Visit, Board, Search & Seizure (VBSS)

Gain critical situational awareness prior to boarding hostile or unknown vessels, maintaining persistent aerial oversight throughout the entire intervention phase.

Covert & Beaching Operations

Utilize the highly compact and discreet airframe for sensitive inland water operations, leveraging high-performance IR sensors for completely covert night-time infiltrations.
