General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. and Sener, a Spanish engineering company, announced the signing of an agreement to support the use of the Predator B remotely piloted aircraft for Spain’s surveillance and reconnaissance needs.
“GA-ASI is proud to be teamed in Spain with Sener. They are a leading high-technology company with a long record of success in the defense and security sectors, says President of Aircraft Systems for GA-ASI Frank W. Pace. “GA-ASI is fully committed to working with the Spanish industry as we believe this program’s success requires local industry partnerships that provide collaborative innovation in enhancing the capabilities of Predator B for the Spanish Government.”
Sever will help to optimize data collection in the aircraft and will create high-technology jobs for the growing unmanned aircraft industry in Spain.
“It is an honor for Sener to partner with General Atomics Aeronautical Systems to support the Predator B supply to the Spanish Government,” says Andres Sendagorta, vice president of Sener. “At the same time, it is a source of satisfaction to make available for the Spanish Ministry of Defense our experience and technological capabilities in this challenging project to implement the first system of this kind that will be operating in Spain.”
