Tel Aviv, Israel. 02 April 2024, Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), and Aerotor Unmanned Systems have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that includes the development of products and promotion of their commercial cooperation.

Within the framework of the MOU,  advanced drone systems for a variety of tactical military missions for users on land, at sea and in the air will be developed. The agreement includes the engineering development and marketing of Aerotor’s Apus multicopter, which is based on a unique configuration which uses a central heavy-fuel propulsion system piloted through a variable-pitch mechanism. This provides a distinct operational advantage in terms of the payload that can be carried, flight duration, and maneuverability.
