Nornorna’s Quiet Reconnaissance Aircraft
Nornorna presents Surtr, a hand-launched fixed-wing reconnaissance aircraft designed to operate without continuous radio, satellite fixes, or a ground link.
Field notes
Surtr is described as a hand-launched aircraft for search-and-report missions, with perception, decision-making, and vehicle safety separated into bounded onboard layers. The page specifies a 113.73-gram all-up mass, 543-millimetre deployed wingspan, 10-gram payload capsule, and claimed 17.8-minute endurance. It also describes two operating modes: one-way reporting that prioritizes concealment, and autonomous return to an offset waypoint with a retained flight audit. These are homepage claims rather than independently verified performance results.
