“Dragonflight gives the Navy a mature product to build on, and the precision formation capability we’re adding will carry across services and missions.”

Paul Fermo, President of Robinson Unmanned

“The operational value of an unmanned aircraft is increasingly defined by how effectively it can operate as part of the larger force.”
