MAG’s Rocket Fast Drones (RFDs) are electric aircraft that fly at up to 155 MPH and cover up to 40 nm. No runway, no catapult, no assembly needed.
Launching in seconds, an RFD can navigate on its own, point to point, beyond line of sight – even in wind and GPS-degraded environments.
Our VTOL models land softly, fully recoverable and reusable. The low cost puts massed effects within reach. Our RFD line spans four models in flight testing: the EP90, EP150, EP250, and EP450, carrying payloads from 0.3 to 2.2 lb.

SCALABLE BY DESIGN: Small-volume RFD production is available now. Large-scale production reaches 100 aircraft per month within 9 months.
FLYING ANYWHERE THE MISSION GOES
Rocket Fast Drones fit in a Pelican case, ride in a UTV bed, or palletize for cargo aircraft deployment.
- Case launch: Pop the top and launch from the ground or a ship. No assembly required, and the small form factor fits in a UTV bed. Add cases for more volume.
- Air launch: Launch from fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft. Sized for the Common Launch Tube (CLT), and palletized for cargo aircraft swarm deployment.
- VTOL: Take off and land on any flat surface – recoverable and reusable.
MODULAR PAYLOAD BAY: SEVEN PAYLOADS, ZERO TOOLS
Change the mission without changing the aircraft. The RFD modular interface installs without tools, meaning even unskilled personnel can swap payloads in the field.
Choose from seven:
- Kinetic warhead
- Kinetic warhead and seeker
- EW jammer
- EW decoy
- Battlefield blood transport
- Fixed camera system
- Deployable CBRNE microsensor
