Capabilities and access include:
"We are ready to advance opportunities to contribute to the strength, readiness, and resilience of the United States and its partners," said Scott Pomeroy, Chief Executive Officer of XTI. "Our drone ecosystem is prepared to augment critical unmanned system capabilities to ensure they are available when and where they are needed while operating in compliance with U.S. law and international obligations."
"We believe the United States and its allies must maintain reliable access to the world's most advanced drone technologies," continued Pomeroy. "Expanding capabilities at XTI and Drone Nerds may enable us to support U.S. Government strategic objectives and strengthen the resilience of the allied unmanned systems supply chain with advanced drone solutions and mission-support technologies as operational needs evolve.
