AryaAir · Built on AryaOS
Airspace awareness where the network ends.
AryaAir tracks both manned and unmanned aircraft, fusing ADS-B, UAT, and dual-band Remote ID into a single common operating picture delivered directly to any TAK end-user device or standard web browser. Deploy it fixed, on a vehicle, or packed by a single operator.
BLUF
Local aircraft, directly in the TAK picture.
AryaAir works without an internet connection. Power the unit, connect a TAK end-user device or browser, and receive nearby manned and unmanned aircraft tracks over the local network.
Deploy it with an individual operator, a mobile crew, a remote observation point, or a tactical operations center. The same aircraft feed can remain local or be forwarded to a TAK Server.
