SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico, June 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —\u00a0Red Cat Holdings, Inc.<\/a>\u202f(Nasdaq: RCAT) (\u201cRed Cat\u201d), a drone technology company integrating robotic hardware and software for military, government, and commercial operations, today introduced its new family of unmanned Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) and precision lethal strike systems. The announcement, made on the first day of Eurosatory in Paris, comes on the heels of\u00a0Red Cat\u2019s LOI to acquire FlightWave Aerospace Systems Corporation<\/a>.<\/p>

Red Cat\u2019s family of ISR and precision strike drones will provide the industry with an alternative to conventional ISR\/strike systems on the market that are high cost and non-retrievable. Red Cat\u2019s sensor-to-shooter (S2S) system for identifying targets with optional precision strike capabilities is differentiated from other systems with its low cost portable drones. The objective of this new family of systems is to meet the increasingly urgent need of the Pentagon\u2019s Replicator Initiative for swarms of low-cost \u201cattritable\u201d ISR and surgical strike drones deployable in air, land, sea, and sub-sea environments.<\/p>

Red Cat\u2019s mission is to redefine the role of sUAS for defense applications by combining the capabilities of ISR drones with precision strike payloads. The company is an established leader in the sUAS (Group 1) space with its flagship Teal 2 aircraft. As part of the new family of systems, Red Cat is introducing FANG\u2122, a new First-Person View (FPV) drone with precision strike payload capabilities. The FPV drone is currently undergoing Blue UAS certification. The acquisition of FlightWave\u2019s Edge 130 rounds out the family of systems, which will include all current and future Teal models.<\/p>

\u201cThe entire nature of warfare and use of drone technology is undergoing a fundamental shift, and this new family of systems will completely disrupt the traditional ISR and loitering munition systems market,\u201d said Jeff Thompson, Red Cat CEO. \u201cWarfighters will be able to choose the right combination of drones and payloads for their specific missions and have access to an ecosystem of tactical AI, computer vision, and machine learning software that can positively identify threats and then have the option to engage and eliminate those targets.\u201d<\/p>

Red Cat\u2019s new family of low-cost and portable unmanned ISR and precision lethal strike systems includes three aircraft with complementary capabilities and a common Ground Control System (GCS) such as the Android Tactical Assault Kit (ATAK) for multi-vehicle command and control:<\/p>
