Kratos-Aerovironment Team to Integrate, Demo Tactical UAS & Missile System


TYSONS CORNER, VA, May 9, 2019 ” Kratos Defense and Security Solutions (Nasdaq: KTOS) is working with Aerovironment to demonstrate an unmanned aircraft system in which a small tube-launched drone can be deployed from another that is larger and runway-independent to operate across multiple domains in near-peer, denied environments, ExecutiveBiz reported Wednesday.
