Drone Aviation Receives Award for Sustainment Equipment Purchased
by the U.S. Department of Defense
Parts and Equipment Support Ongoing Soldier Training and
Rotational Exercises
JACKSONVILLE, FL--(Marketwired - Jun 25, 2014) - Drone Aviation
Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Drone Aviation Holding Corp.
(the "Company") (PINKSHEETS: DRNE), a developer of specialized
lighter-than-air aerostats and tethered drones, has announced that
Lighter Than Air Systems Corp. ("LTAS"), its wholly owned
subsidiary, has received an award from U.S. Government prime
contractor ADS Inc. ("ADS"). The award recognizes LTAS's
sustainment kits that support the Government's "Blimp in a Box",
BiB-250 tethered aerostat systems, which are currently stationed at
U.S. Army Garrison Fort Polk. The sustainment equipment order
valued at over $250,000 is expected to be delivered in Q3 and will
be utilized to support evaluations, training, and operations in
rotational exercises.
The highly mobile BiB-250 tethered aerostat systems are intended
to provide semi-persistent, mobile intelligence, surveillance and
reconnaissance ("ISR") at the platoon level with minimal troop
requirements. The BiB-250 systems provide real-time day/night high
definition footage for ISR, detection of hostile activity,
improvised explosive devices, border security and other
governmental and civilian uses. Unlike larger, complex,
stadium size moored aerostats, or smaller, limited endurance free
flying drones, the tactical BiB-250 system can provide low cost,
mobile ISR for days, weeks or months with minimal costs and limited
operational footprint and human requirement.
Drone Aviation Holding Corp.'s CEO Felicia Hess stated, "We are
excited that LTAS has been selected to provide additional
sustainment equipment for the BiB-250 systems at Ft. Polk. We
will continue to work closely with our government customers to
ensure the soldiers have all of the equipment they require to
operate the BiB systems throughout the ongoing training and
exercises at Ft. Polk."
LTAS was issued the award by ADS, which currently services U.S.
Military & DOD Agencies, Federal Agencies, Defense Contractors,
Law Enforcement & Public Safety, Fire & Emergency Services
and Foreign Military & Government. ADS provides operational and
tactical equipment to or for use by customers such as the United
States Government and its various agencies and departments and
other non commercial customers.
