The two companies will join forces and offer a lightweight unmanned robotic helicopter that meets various challenges faced by HLS, military forces and law enforcement agencies.

"As EDT continues to serve its customers with innovative, novel, unique, tailor-made solutions, we had scouted Steadicopter and its Eagle family - a platform of solutions which fits synergistically with other solutions manufactured in the region,” said Mohamed Bin Jabr Al Suwaidi, Owner & CEO of EDT.

“We found that Steadicopter's systems, which are used by various armed forces around the world and have already been operationally proven in various missions, meet the highest standards and needs of our customers. We are proud to launch them in the UAE, using both companies’ strengths and relevant accumulated experience, and anticipate that this will be a long-term cooperation that will cater to the needs of various defence and HLS organisations. We continue to prioritise investments and partnerships that meet current and future needs.”
