AirRobot, NGC Remotec Sign Distribution Agreement For UAS

Aircraft Would Be Sold Exclusively Through Northrop Grumman Subsidiary To First Responders And Law Enforcement

A distribution agreement for a line of small unmanned aerial systems (UAS) has been entered into by Northrop Grumman and AirRobot US. Under the agreement, Remotec is the sole reseller of these products to the first responder and law enforcement market in the United States.

The companies also are working to integrate Remotec's unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) and AirRobot's aerial systems to create new ground/air capabilities that meet a wide range of operational requirements.

As part of the agreement, which commenced earlier this month, Remotec also will provide service, maintenance and technical support for all AirRobot systems in the U.S.

"This distributorship arrangement gives our customers access to a best-in-class small vertical takeoff and landing [VTOL] UAS product line that represents some of the most mature technology in the industry with a decade-long track record," said Walt Werner, director, Remotec. "AirRobot systems complement Remotec's UGVs to enhance our customer's mission effectiveness both on the ground and in the air."

AirRobot produces electrical powered multi-copter systems that can carry a payload weighing up to 7 pounds and fly for as long as 50 minutes. The systems can also carry a wide range of payloads – including multi-spectral cameras and recorders, synthetic aperture radar, gas and chemical sensors – and as many as three payloads simultaneously.

"We are proud to collaborate with Remotec, the largest provider of robots to the first responder market," said Thomas Meyer, president of AirRobot US. "The products and capabilities perfectly complement each other, with each system providing increased operational value for the other. We also share and value Remotec's commitment to the highest level of customer service."
