Paladin Unveils Knighthawk 2.0: Advancing Public Safety Infrastructure and Emergency Response Worldwide
Houston, TX, USA- When seconds determine safer outcomes, the ability to see and respond firsthand can define a country’s safety. Today, Paladin introduced Knighthawk 2.0, its newest autonomous NDAA-compliant drone. Built on Drone as a First Responder (DFR) technology, Knighthawk 2.0 is designed to modernize public safety infrastructure around the globe by strengthening emergency response, protecting first responders, and safeguarding communities when it matters most.
Across cities, disaster zones, and critical incidents, first responders need public safety infrastructure that is fast, reliable, and mission-ready. Knighthawk 2.0 delivers unmatched speed and precision, reaching the scene in just 70 seconds to provide real-time aerial situational awareness and enhance operational efficiency. Engineered to save lives from the very first moments of a crisis, Knighthawk 2.0 is the next breakthrough for public safety infrastructure. It has over a 40-minute flight time, operates across diverse terrain and unpredictable conditions, and is guided by advanced sensors, precision GPS, and obstacle avoidance. Its 4K Wide, Zoom, and 640p thermal camera, combined with unlimited-range 5G/LTE connectivity, keeps first responders informed and ahead of every situation.
From the United States to India and Portugal, Paladin is delivering Knighthawk 2.0 rapid-response capabilities to first responders worldwide. To enhance global impact, Paladin has partnered with Beyond Vision, a Portuguese drone manufacturer, combining Paladin’s all-in-one DFR solution with Beyond Vision’s expertise in NATO-compliant, fully autonomous UAV systems.
Knighthawk 2.0 isn’t just a drone; it's public safety infrastructure built for the global scale. It allows countries to have immediate real-time aerial situational awareness, reduce risk, and make faster, more informed decisions in the moments where every second counts. “Public safety is the backbone of modern civilization. When people do not feel safe, everything suffers. We're excited to launch Knighthawk 2.0 to help build safer cities, and give any city across the world less than 70 second response time for any emergency,”said Divyaditya Shrivastava, CEO of Paladin.
We invite attendees at the World Defense Show (WDS) to experience Knighthawk 2.0 up close. Paladin will showcase the capabilities of the newest drone and how it can deliver rapid aerial situational awareness, empower first responders, and strengthen public safety infrastructure globally. Paladin is sharing a booth with Beyond Vision, providing WDS attendees with the opportunity to explore the capabilities and global deployment solutions.
