Sanswire's UAV Joint Venture Conducts Flight Test and Receives Additional Working Capital

Sanswire Corp. announced that it has completed a series of flight tests of a new segmented airship design based on a single swiveling engine technology that incorporates a vector thrust propulsion application. The testing follows a private placement through European investors earmarked exclusively for further development and testing of Sanswire-TAO's patented, segmented Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) at the Stuttgart facility. Sanswire-TAO Corp is a joint venture between the Company and TAO Technologies GmbH.

The newly developed propulsion system undergoing testing can be powered by various engine configurations, depending on mission requirements including payload, duration and altitude. Recent test flights were conducted using the Company's proprietary propulsion solution coupled to a remotely operated swiveling gimbal mounted to the head of the segmented airship.

Dr. Bernd Kroeplin, president of TAO, is using the working capital to advance the autonomous flight controls, and ready patented energy storage and propulsion systems for high altitude testing. Other uses of proceeds will be construction and un-tethered testing of scaled prototypes that study flight characteristics of the segmented airship design when integrated with propulsion systems and various implementations of auxiliary systems.

Jonathan Leinwand, Chief Executive Officer of Sanswire Corp., stated, "This capital infusion helps the joint venture channel the proper resources toward our shared goal of successful stratospheric flight. The private placement enabling this infusion was made at a considerable premium to our share price, which we view as a show of confidence in our business plan and UAV performance capabilities."

On June 19, 2008, Sanswire and TAO announced that they had reached an agreement to form Sanswire-TAO Corp. to own the intellectual property associated with the design of low, medium and high altitude airships. The companies continue to work together to advance their lighter than air (LTA) unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) program advancing closer to their goal of producing the non-rigid, segmented high altitude airship known as the Stratellite(TM).
