The future of UAS isn’t defined by features; it’s defined by how they enable real‑world operations. Hosted by the Canadian Armed Forces, Exercise RED COBALT offered the Canadian military an opportunity to collaborate with industry manufacturers to witness operational applications of drone technologies. The Redwire team was honored to participate, showcasing our combat proven Stalker UAS alongside our new Canadian‑developed First-Person View (FPV) relay system. The Stalker impressed the Senior Canadian defense leadership in attendance, demonstrating the ability to significantly extend the missions of Group 1/Small UAS and FPV systems, enhancing operational reach and effectiveness. We are committed to supporting the evolving needs of the Canadian Armed Forces and continue to build the advanced solutions that strengthen allied defense capabilities worldwide. #CombatProven# #UAS# #FPV# #DefenseTechnology# #MadeForTheMission#
