UAV Corp. Completes the Integration of the Engine Hard Structures of the Airship UAV Corp. completed the integration of the engine hard structures of the Company’s airship. Flight controls and propulsion integration is planned over the next 3 weeks.

The new hard structures are designed to support full vectoring of the propulsion system that can handle the stress loads of vertical take-off and landing in both manned, unmanned and tether operations. There are three remotely piloted systems onboard that support launch and recovery of drones with high resolution cameras for streaming video, IR capabilities for night vision video and thermal target detection. The Company’s proprietary designed remotely piloted system allows the “Mother-ship” to be detached from a ground supported umbilical cable to support immediate mission needs or in the case of impending weather, ground threats or a tether failure to safely return to its base.
