The Hylio ARES (HYL-150) is an American-made agricultural multirotor UAS for precision spraying and spreading, with modular liquid and solid payload configurations. Official Hylio data says it can carry up to 110 lb (50 kg) and operate with 13 gal liquid or 20 gal solid payload options, with swath widths up to 40 ft and spray/spread rates suited to high-acreage agricultural application. For defence use, it is best classified as a civilian multi-role UAS with potential relevance to logistics-style payload delivery, but Hylio markets it for agriculture rather than military employment.
