“The new PS2500 battery offers both new and current Puma
customers the opportunity to dramatically expand the duration of
their operations, enabling more ground covered in a single flight,”
said Brad Truesdell, AeroVironment’s vice president and general
manager of small UAS (SUAS). “Adding longer endurance capabilities
to Puma's existing flexible launch options and modularity makes it
a truly unparalleled asset for various types of operations.”
Puma customers can now choose between the standard smart battery
with two and a half hours of endurance, or the PS2500 battery with
three hours of endurance. The high-energy-density lithium-ion
PS2500 battery pack features an improved capacity of 24.5Ah
(amp-hours) while retaining the size and form factor needed to be
seamlessly integrated into Puma 3 AE’s existing battery bay and is
also interoperable with Puma LE as a Line Replaceable Unit
(LRU).
