UAV Corp's
subsidiary Skyborne Technology and Gulf Coast State College execute
Phase II binding MOU
Port St. Joe-Wewahitchka, Florida and Panama City,
Florida -- May 20, 2021 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- UAV
Corp's (OTC
Pink: UMAV) Skyborne Technology (STI) and Gulf Coast State
College (GCSC) have executed a binding MOU to secure 3rd Party
contracts to add government agencies and commercial companies to
advance the technology of the DATT tether-airship utilizing a
wireless Broadband communications network for its UAS Systems for
1st responders after a disaster.
The new PHASE II agreement with GCSC is unique to
allow government and commercial entities to participate in
sponsorship programs to test and evaluate advanced technologies in
Realtime on board the tether-airship. Specifically, multiple drones
will be in flight and communicating through the mothership (also
remotely piloted) to send data to first responders in case of
disaster like hurricane Michael. "Our goal is to be testing 5G
capabilities with a national carrier late summer followed by flight
readiness in case of a disaster or other national needs, stated
Michael Lawson CEO of STI."
The DATT SA 70-12 tether-airship is under final
construction with an advanced modular semi-rigid design. Currently,
the hard structures for engine decks, fuel decks, drone decks are
made of aircraft aluminum and can be converted into composite
structures. The hard structures are scheduled to be ready for
integration onto the airship in June 2021. The inner envelope
(helium structure) is scheduled for leak testing late May/June
2021. The flight tests are currently scheduled to start late summer
2021 and set up into three Phases. Phase 1 is to test the DATT
airship with manned operations. Phase 2 operations is to test
a new Detachable Airship Tether System (DATT) in which the airship
can remotely disconnect from the tether in case of tether failure
or become mission oriented for remotely piloted operations followed
by PHASE 3 remote pilot operations with two UAS (drone) systems on
board the mothership.
"The strong relationship between Gulf Coast State
College (GCSC) and Skyborne Technology, Inc. (STI) continues to
develop and expand in exciting new ways, much the way STI's
lighter-than-air UAV technology continues to push beyond existing
boundaries and innovate in ways previously unimagined. This
next phase of project development throws open the doors for
public-private partnerships that will be truly transformational in
the industry," stated Dr. John Holdnak, President of Gulf Coast
State College.
"We couldn't be more pleased with our growing
relationship with Gulf Coast State College and Dr. Holdnak. Our
growing public-private partnership has already accelerated our
company's growth and provided us with unique revenue and
sponsorship opportunities that both the Skyborne Technology and
Gulf Coast State College plan to develop in the future. The
continued support we have received from the College and Gulf County
are helping UAV Corp and Skyborne Technology become a leading
Tether-Airship and Drone technology company," Stated Billy
Robinson, Chairman of UAV Corp.
