The Aerosonde® aircraft’s original design specifications were developed around the requirements of scientific applications, primarily meteorological missions. As such, the primary goals were endurance over long ranges, reliable performance in varied terrains and climates, and competitive cost for data collection missions.

Conceived as a means of providing an economical method of undertaking observations with considerable flexibility of operation. A particular aim of the program has been meterological observations in remote and otherwise inaccessible regions, but many other uses have since arisen.

In August 1998, The Insitu Group and The University of Washington further demonstrated the long range feasibility of the Aerosonde by conducting the first transatlantic flight by robotic aircraft. Continuing development by Aerosonde Pty Ltd has seen the Aerosonde progress through to the current Mark 3-4 system and the establishment of the Global Reconnaissance Facility, which provides operations anywhere on earth.
