High Eye, the manufacturer that produces the Long-Range VTOL UAV called the Airboxer®, signed a multi-year contract with UAV Navigation.
The agreement includes the VECTOR-600 premium autopilot that meets ISO9001:2015 standards and which is compliant with MIL-STD-810F (vibration,acceleration, humidity, rain, temperature, etc.) and with MIL-STD 461F (EMI).“At UAV Navigation we are very proud to be part and parcel of the Airboxer®which is, in fact, a class on its own.
Knowing High Eye very well, we must say thatwe are highly impressed by the level of engineering, its testing capabilities, andits quality commitment. But most of all, we admire the commitment and thededication of the High Eye team to invest more than 8 years in the developmentof the Airboxer®.”, says Tobias, CEO of UAV Navigation.
The Airboxer® is a Long-Range VTOL UAV that meets the demanding STANAG4738 standards (NATO). It flies on heavy fuel (Jet A1) and it is capable of hoveringfor hours. Placed between the short endurance electric drones and the muchlarger VTOL UAV systems, it has created its own niche.
‘’We have been working with UAV Navigation for more than 8 years and we havealways been happy with this partnership. The dedication and passion for itsproducts and for aviation in general, its service level in combination with the willto keep on learning and developing makes UAV Navigation the perfect match forHigh Eye. I am convinced that this partnership will continue to deliver growth inquantity and quality for years to come”, says Joost de Ruiter, CEO of High Eye.
