PRESS RELEASE – Flying Objects Technologies and uAvionix enter into a Strategic Partnership for European Expansion Paris, France – 14th of October, 2024 – Flying Objects Technologies, a provider of cutting-edge solutions to drone manufacturers, announces a strategic partnership with uAvionix for its defence products. uAvionix – based in Virginia USA – is the market leader for Identify Friend or Foe (IFF) solution for unmanned platforms, to Mode 5 NATO standards. This partnership represents a significant milestone in both companies’ efforts to bring uAvionix’s cutting edge technology to the European drone industry. “uAvionix delivers a significant edge to its defence customers, particularly in today’s highly contested and crowded airspace. The ability to identify friendly or hostile assets immediately is critical, says Jean Luc Laydevant, Managing Director of Flying Objects Technologies. “Specializing in Communication, Navigation, and other advanced UAS subsystems, Flying Objects Technologies delivers top-tier technology to its European customers.” Why is this technology groundbreaking? • Miniaturization redefined: uAvionix has developed the industry’s smallest and lightest IFF transponders, weighing just 70 grams. These ultra- lightweight devices are designed to equip even the most compact Tactical UAVs (TUAVs), without compromising on performance. • Unmatched capability: The innovative Combined Transponder- Receiver takes miniaturized IFF to new heights. Drones as light as 6kg can now be fully compliant with Mode 1, 2, 3/A, C, S, and 5, meeting the most stringent requirements for identification and communication. • Powerhouse performance: Despite their size, these transponders deliver a powerful 54dBm/250W transmit power, ensuring reliable identification in the most demanding conditions. By joining forces in the European markets with Flying Objects Technologies, uAvionix gains access to their extensive network, expertise, and resources, enabling them to enhance their service offerings and expand their presence in key European markets.
