AeroVironment recently secured a €25 million ($30 million) follow-on contract with the French Ministry of Armed Forces for the delivery of "Draaco" mini-UAVs systems.

AeroVironment and Kratos Defense & Security Systems Unmanned Systems Division today announced a new strategic relationship to develop and demonstrate highly integrated and operationally effective multi-domain unmanned system solutions for near- peer, denied environments.

AeroVironment launched a new 360 Multi-Sector Antenna (MSA) for its Puma™ AE small unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). Specifically designed to support Puma AE maritime missions, the 360 MSA provides naval operators with immediate tactical situational awareness, while eliminating the need to redirect the vessel or reconfigure the direction of an antenna to maintain an effective communication link.
