U.S. Army orders Prioria Robotics UAS
GAINESVILLE, Fla., — Prioria Robotics, a Florida-based developer of small unmanned aerial systems, reports it has received several contracts worth $4.5 million from the U.S. Army.
The company said the contracts from the U.S. Army Rapid Equipping Force are for its Maveric UAS, a single-person launched and operated system that was recently certified by the Army Test and Evaluation Command.
The Maveric has the largest number of payload options of any hand-launched UAS — including day/ night, short-wave infrared and other custom payloads utilizing Prioria’s modular payload system. It has a maximum speed of 55 knots and a range of about 9 miles.
“It is our goal to support the warfighter,” said Bryan da Frota, Prioria’s chief executive officer. “Having ATEC certifications means that we have a safe and reliable system. “We believe as the mission changes and evolves, Maveric UAS will become an instrumental component to meeting these missions.”
