Red Cat announced it secured $1.6M in contracts for Edge 130 Blue drones, FlightWave’s Blue UAS approved military-grade tricopter to the U.S. Customs & Border Protection, CBP. The contract was secured through Darley, a leading distributor of equipment and technology to first responders and the military, and was coordinated for procurement by the U.S. Defense Logistics Agency, DLA, on behalf of CBP. “We are excited to continue our relationship with the U.S. Customs & Border Protection, the largest federal law enforcement agency that already uses our Teal 2 drones for enhanced situational awareness with supplemental airborne reconnaissance, surveillance and tracking,” said Jeff Thompson, Red Cat CEO. “Following our playbook from the acquisition and growth of our flagship Teal drones, we are well positioned to scale up production and get the Edge 130 Blue into the hands of our current customers like the CBP, as well as other security and defense forces around the world.”
