The company will be delivering multiple units of its Commander 3XL platform integrated with Unmanned Systems & Solutions Inc (USaS) LEAP tether system under this agreement. The financial terms of the order were not disclosed.
This order signifies a major expansion and standardization of the customer’s National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA)-compliant drone fleet for emergency management and post-disaster telecommunication support.
