There's No Hiding from E-BUSTER(Blacklight)

On August 4, 2009, Mission Technologies, Inc., of San Antonio, TX and ImSAR, Inc.,   of Salem, UT successfully completed the integration and initial test flight of the            E-BUSTER (BLACKLIGHT)™ Small Unmanned Aerial System (SUAS) equipped with     a NanoSAR (Nano Synthetic Aperture Radar) payload.  During the test flight, excellent radar images were transmitted to the ground station displaying in-flight imagery.

The E-BUSTER (BLACKLIGHT)™ Air Vehicle features interchangeable modular payloads, high resolution sensors, with full pan/tilt/zoom capabilities and the ability      to silently glide unnoticed over sensitive targets.  Additionally, the E-BUSTER (BLACKLIGHT)™ Air Vehicle has  demonstrated flight endurance of 3 hours with rechargeable and 4
½ hours with disposable batteries, giving the system unmatched time over target in a UAV of this size.

The NanoSAR device weighs 2 pounds, which includes the navigation system, antennas, cabling, real-time processor, and RF front end.
  While other SAR devices weigh as much as motorcycle engines (50 - 200 lbs), the NanoSAR device meets      the size, weight, power consumption and cost requirements for SUAS.  The NanoSAR device makes SAR technology available to tactical war-fighters by providing them     with immediate actionable intelligence that wins battles and saves lives. 

When atmospheric conditions limit the use of Electro Optic/Infrared (EO/IR) sensors,    an E-BUSTER (BLACKLIGHT)™ air vehicle equipped with a NanoSAR payload can gather Reconnaissance, Intelligence, Surveillance and Target Acquisition (RISTA)   images and data
­ regardless of fog, smoke, rain, sand, light camouflage and night-   time conditions.
