ABOUT R44 SPRAYHAWK
Purpose-Built for Aerial Applicators: Aerial application demands precision, consistency, and throughput — often under tight seasonal windows and challenging operating conditions. SPRAYHAWK was designed specifically to meet those demands without exposing pilots to unnecessary risk or limiting operational tempo.
Built on a proven Robinson helicopter platform and adapted for unmanned operation, SPRAYHAWK combines automated flight, precision spray control, and terrain-following capability to deliver repeatable application at scale. With production rates exceeding 200 acres per hour and a 110-gallon useful capacity, operators spend less time refilling and repositioning — and more time spraying.
