Recent Developments
- April 2024- a prominent player in tactical Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) technologies, Edge Autonomy, has announced that the launch of the advanced Epsilon 180 electro-optical (E.O.) mid-wave infrared (MWIR) gimbal payload. The chief growth officer for Edge Autonomy, Joshua Stinson, said that the quality offered in such a compact and hardened payload is almost extraordinary for a payload of this size. He further added that the new Epsilon 180MG, at only seven pounds, can be integrated into a smaller UAS, adding exceptional performance while not radically lowering the platform’s endurance because of the gimbal’s weight.
- July 2024- a global leader in the tactical Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), UAV Factory LLC proudly announced the release of its production-ready Penguin C Mk2 Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) long-endurance aircraft.
