HUNT VALLEY, Md., Nov. 18 (UPI) -- U.S. company AAI Corp. has signed an agreement with Carter Aviation Technologies to gain access to the company's unmanned aircraft technologies.
Textron Systems subsidiary AAI and Carter have entered into a licensing agreement to further develop Carter's Slowed Rotor/Compound technology.
The agreement gives AAI access to Carter's SR/C fixed and rotary wing hybrid technologies. Officials say AAI will develop the system for unmanned aircraft applications including intelligence, surveillance and electronic warfare multi-role missions among others.
"Carter Aviation Technologies and AAI Corporation are experts in their respective domains, and SR/C offers the best qualities of fixed- and rotary-wing technologies in a single aircraft -- high-speed cruise with runway independence at an affordable cost," Ellen Lord senior vice president and general manager, said in a statement.
"This combination of expertise and innovative technologies will enable us to extend the superior performance and great value our customers have come to expect from AAI's unmanned aircraft systems to new applications."
