AIG will manufacture multiple high-efficiency drone models (SVTOLs). The Florida facility will operate as an in-house design centre for both airships and drones, using large-scale 3D printers for manufacturing light weight airframe parts, wing structures, cockpits and other. Skyborne, a UAV Corp Company, will continue building the low-altitude semi-rigid spherical airship in Wewahitchka. Both companies will utilise Skyborne’s Costin Airport for flight operations and will house the completed aircrafts/airships in a new future hangar facility.
AIG will create custom integration of AIG drones into STI lighter-than-air platforms. According to the JV partners, the Wewahitchka factory will hire high-paying drone fabrication workers, digital design personnel, and business development professionals. AIG currently holds several technology licenses that it plans to manufacture for government contracts and private security needs. These include VTOLs (vertical take-off and landing aircraft), energy generation, and propulsion.
“We are thrilled to partner with Skyborne Technology to bring our advanced UAV and SVTOL technologies to the next level," said AIG chief revenue officer Maceo Remy. "This venture will not only create new job opportunities in the region but also help us meet the growing demand for our cutting-edge technologies.”
