Insitu announces new partnership
Insitu has announced a new partnership with Abu Dhabi Autonomous Systems Investments Company (ADASI) for the support and sustainment of Insitu’s intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) unmanned aircraft system (UAS) products and services. Announced in a company statement on 15 November 2011, Insitu hopes that the partnership will facilitate world-class systems and support for current and future customers in the Middle East.
According to the company, Insitu hopes that the proposed collaboration will ‘enable the parties to perform joint support and sustainment activities on Insitu's ScanEagle and Integrator UAS. Proven to perform in extreme-temperature, expeditionary environments, Insitu's ScanEagle first deployed to the Middle East with the US Marine Corps in 2004. It has since accrued combat flight hours, faster than any other tactical UAS.’
