EWAHITCHKA, FL, Feb 24, 2025 – UAV Corp. is expanding its aerospace manufacturing capabilities with the arrival of Atlantic Industrial Group Inc. (AIG) at its Florida facility this week. AIG plans the installation of a production line capable of 3D printing technology at the location. The Florida facility will encompass design, computational flow testing capabilities, 3D printing, vacuum panel formation, training facility, ground-based control center, and other capabilities. These developments mark a significant step toward full-scale production of the T-Wing UAS, UAV Corp’s next-generation unmanned aerial system.
AIG will lead the pre-production for the T-Wing UAS. This advanced platform combines vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) with winged flight, allowing for different mission capabilities. Fabrication and assembly will occur on-site using 3D printing, mold, or hybrid frame methods. The goal is to complete the airframe model by May 1.
UAV Corp. and AIG have successfully integrated the T-Wing flight simulator. Engineers are finalizing the flight control system. The company plans to arrange capability verification flights in simulators and at the local airfield. Engineering teams and pilots will be involved in these flights.
T-Wing UAS: Advanced Technology for Real-World Applications
Built with a high-aspect-ratio wing and AI-powered flight controls, the T-Wing UAS offers endurance and precision. Key applications include:
- Agricultural monitoring and crop analysis
- Environmental research and disaster assessment
- Aerial mapping and infrastructure inspections
- Beyond-Visual-Line-of-Sight (BVLOS) commercial deliveries
A Commitment to Innovation and Growth
“These milestones underscore UAV Corp’s commitment to advancing unmanned aerial systems with precision and efficiency,” said Michael Lawson, CEO of UAV Corp. “AIG’s expertise and our new manufacturing capabilities position us for industry leadership.”
