Mac Jee, founded in Brazil in 2007 and one of the largest companies in the country's Defense Industrial Base (BID), recognized as one of the world leaders in the strategic production of defense solutions, announces that it is reinforcing its commitment to innovation by presenting, for the first time in the international market, the ANSHAR, its new kamikaze drone.
The presentation was made today, November 16, during the Dubai Airshow, one of the largest international trade fairs in the civil and military aviation sector. Mac Jee explains that the ANSHAR was developed in Brazil as a result of its own investments in Research and Innovation and meets the requirements of modern warfare doctrines, reinforcing the company's product offering to allied nations.
With a name that references Babylonian mythology (Anshar is the god of the celestial horizon), the new kamikaze drone from the Mac Jee Group represents, according to the company, a leap in technology and capacity for the Brazilian Defense Industrial Base.
The ANSHAR reaches a speed of 170 m/s (612 km/h), with a minimum altitude of 10 meters (sea skimming) and a maximum of 8,000 meters (26,200 feet), has a range of 100 km and a flight autonomy of one hour. In addition, the drone supports a maximum takeoff weight of 160 kg, a payload of 20 kg and a fuel weight of 46 kg.
The product is in advanced development and will be produced at Mac Jee's facilities in Vale do Paraíba, in the interior of São Paulo. Mac Jee states that it is committed to developing new solutions that are increasingly electronic and even use Artificial Intelligence. “It is a natural step, we will never stop innovating, always following our strong ethical conduct”, guarantees Simon Jeannot, President and Founder of the Mac Jee group.
“The ANSHAR was developed to fly at high altitude and high speed, with excellent maneuverability and integration of a wide variety of payloads. We use our knowledge and resources to develop a low-cost operational solution, with simplified manufacturing and maintenance processes, to ensure that the Air Forces of allied nations are able to perform their duty with the best results”, says the executive.
During the Dubai Airshow, the company will also be exhibiting its MK series and the BLU109 ammunition, already produced on a large scale, which continues to be the only ammunition forged in Brazil and qualified by the competent international authorities for use in all NATO combat aircraft.
Mac Jee will be present at booth 1064 at the Dubai Airshow, showcasing its excellence in the defense industry to visitors and partners from the international market.
