Neros 5’ and 10” variants, providing diverse capabilities for multiple missions sets.

PBAS reinforces the readiness of a secure, NDAA-compliant supply chain and Neros’ ability to support U.S. Army priorities with dependable production, trusted components, and rapid execution aligned to operational needs.

PBAS strengthens the foundation for continuous iteration alongside the Army and represents the shift from promising capability to repeatable, program-level delivery. By validating domestic production capacity, warfighters can rely on a trusted system that evolves as quickly as mission demands change.

Alongside the PBAS delivery, Neros debuts Archer Block 2, its next-generation First Person View FPV drone system designed for extended operational range, improved urban survivability, and mission-configurable modularity for warfighters operating in contested environments.

Block 2 expands Neros’ battle-proven FPV architecture with a modular, repairable, field-reconfigurable design that reduces lifecycle costs while increasing operational flexibility. Arms, motors, and propellors are swappable by the end user allowing for five-, eight-, and ten-inch configurations. Payloads and sensors are also end-user swappable in just minutes to support day, night, and complex urban missions. This architecture maintains the same performance and reliability standards that have defined Neros' FPV systems.

The interchangeable multi-sensor payload suite includes:

• Electro-optical (EO) camera
• Downward-facing camera
• EO illuminator
• Infrared (IR) illuminator
• Thermal camera

“Swappable sensors fundamentally change how FPV systems are employed,” Soren Monroe-Anderson, Neros’ CEO, said. “Instead of fielding multiple platforms for different missions, operators can reconfigure Block 2 on the ground to match the task at hand—day, night, urban, or extended-range—without slowing down or compromising capability.”

In addition to enhanced, modular FPV drones, the Block 2 system integrates Flatbow, a rugged, soldier-borne Ground Control System optimized for dismounted infantry operations. A field pack configuration enables infantry units to transport and deploy up to three FPV drones, while a displaced antenna allows pilot standoff distances of up to 150 meters, improving survivability and tactical flexibility in urban and contested terrain.

Planned future enhancements for the Block 2 system include AI-enabled terminal guidance, autonomous mission features, and aerial repeater capabilities to further extend operational range and connectivity in contested electronic warfare environments.

“At Neros, we don’t build static products—we build evolving combat systems,” Monroe-Anderson added. “Block 2 reflects our commitment to continuous iteration, rapid integration of new capabilities, and deep partnership with American and allied warfighters. Their feedback drives our roadmap, and our mission is to stay ahead of the threat alongside them.”

Neros is accepting orders now for the Block 2 FPV drone system, building on the proven production capacity and trusted, NDAA-compliant supply chain validated by this first PBAS delivery.
