Quantum Cyber files drone propulsion patent

Quantum Cyber N.V. announced the filing of a provisional patent application for a Coaxial Dual-Propellant Grain Solid Rocket Motor (CDPG-SRM) with the United States — United States Patent and Trademark Office. This novel propulsion architecture is designed to extend the operational range and mission endurance of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in defense, border security, and autonomous warfare applications. The development aligns with the United States' defense procurement shift towards low-cost, long-range autonomous systems, as well as Donald Trump's Executive Order 14307 on American drone dominance. The United States — United States Department of Defense's significant budget allocations for drones further underscore the commercial significance of this innovation. The CDPG-SRM offers a two-phase thrust profile, providing an initial boost followed by a sustain phase, and is scalable for UAVs in the 1-15 kg class. This technology is intended to be a key component of Quantum Cyber's multi-domain defense platform, enhancing its strategic value and positioning it as a significant participant in the domestic drone supply chain.
