Description
The Hermes 90 is an UAS unmanned aircraft system designed and manufactured by the Israeli Company Elbit Systems. The Hermes 90 was unveiled at the Paris Air Show 2009. Hermes® 90 features high survivability and is a long endurance UAS with 18 hours mission range of up to 100 kilometers. Hermes® 90 provides various payloads integration capability and dual launch and recovery methods including integral launcher for point launch and recovery on non-prepared surfaces without using any dedicated ground equipment, as well as strip operation. The system enables full integration with any C4I system, for fast imagery dissemination as well as easy coordination between the operational forces in the field. The Hermes® 90 is ideal for maneuvering forces and maritime forces using its heavy fuel engine configuration, enabling refueling, launch and recovery on naval platforms and ships.

Technical Data
 
Design
Israel's Elbit Systems Hermes-90 is based on the design of the Innocon Mini Falcon II. The basic Hermes-90 configuration includes a Micro Compass electro-optic payload, which includes a colour CCD day camera, third-generation cooled thermal imaging and a laser marker.
Mobility

The Hermes 90 uses a new engine with heavy fuel, a safer alternative to automobile gasoline. The heavy fuel is a Kerosene-based diesel fuel (Jp5/8) commonly used in jet aircraft engines. Heavy fuels provides significant advantages in the naval and maritime field, enabling refueling, launch and recovery on naval platforms and ships.

Accessories
The Hermes 90 includes an advanced ground control station (GCS) for monitoring and controlling the mission, mounted on board one of the field class vehicles. The basic Hermes 90 configuration includes a Micro-Compass electro-optic payload, featuring exceptional surveillance performance, which includes a color CCD day camera, third generation cooled thermal imaging and a laser marker. The Micro Compass can also include a laser range finder or a laser designator.
Missions
The Hermes 90 performs day, night and adverse weather missions. The system's compact and lightweight features enable it to be carried onboard two field light wheeled vehicles and to be easily deployed in full cycle operations by a two- or three-person crew. The system's autonomous capabilities together with the simple operating abilities through all mission stages, facilitate optimal deployment, without the need for complex training or special skills. The advanced UAS incorporates highly autonomous capabilities suitable for various missions and flight modes common to all the Hermes and Skylark families of UAS.
