Landing page captured for the 2026-09-03 issue.

Field notes

Nornorna describes Surtr as a compact fixed-wing aircraft that folds into a rugged tube carried on a combat rig. Its stated operating concept avoids continuous video links and satellite fixes, using onboard perception, visual navigation, and dead reckoning before sending a verified report. The page lists 17.8 minutes of endurance, roughly 11.8 km of still-air range, and a 10-gram nose payload capsule. Technical evaluation appears to begin through a briefing or operational-evaluation request rather than public documentation.
