FIRESTORM LE DEVELOPMENT WILL SUPPORT FURTHER MATURATION OF THESE SBIR TECHNOLOGIES AND BETTER SUPPORT THE ARMY GOALS FOR ON DEMAND LAUNCHABLE UAS FROM MANNED ROTORCRAFT, UAS HOST PLATFORMS AND GROUND PLATFORMS.

The Department of the Army awarded Firestorm Labs a $1.29 million contract to advance SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) technologies for developing on-demand launchable unmanned aerial systems (UAS) that can be deployed from manned rotorcraft, UAS platforms, and ground-based systems. This contract supports the Army's goals for rapidly deployable, modular drone solutions that integrate with existing military platforms. The work builds on Firestorm's expertise in expeditionary additive manufacturing and modular UAS design to enable flexible, mission-adaptable capabilities for warfighters.
