Reliable, Effective and Easy-to-Use

This is how the mission-ready setup looks like

The catapult is always part of a complete system. While end users are typically military units, it is primarily aircraft manufacturers who integrate the catapult, adapter, and aircraft into a single package for delivery to the end user.

Custom adapters

We design customized adapters to integrate the client’s aircraft with the launcher system, considering key parameters such as weight, required speed, shape and center of gravity. The result is a fully customized solution that ensures both performance and reliability.

Remote control

All launcher functions are controlled via a single wired or wireless interface. Operators can pressurize the system, configure the rail, monitor launch parameters, and execute launch with real-time status feedback.

Launcher transport

Towing launchers requires a B-category truck, such as a RAM, or a C-category truck with a NATO tow hook. Drivers must possess BE-category licenses.

Optional system features

Enhance the system with optional features to meet specific requirements.

Size and Color Options Available

The system comes in two sizes: large Cata B for heavier-class UAVs and small Cata BX for lighter platforms. Both systems may be customized in NATO green or beige, or any other custom color scheme.
