Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: RCAT) announced Monday the launch of Red Cat Aerial, combining its Teal Drones and FlightWave Aerospace operations under one brand.
The unified division includes Black Widow, FANG, Edge 130 and Hellcat drone systems. It also unveiled TRICHON, a hand-launched, long-endurance vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) drone designed for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions.
Red Cat said the consolidation would streamline customer engagement, accelerate product development and reduce deployment costs for military operators.
The company will showcase TRICHON at the Association of the United States Army's annual exposition in Washington, D.C., from Oct. 12-14.
Meanwhile, its maritime division, Blue Ops, will demonstrate its Variant 7 uncrewed surface vessel on the Potomac River. Demonstrations can be requested through the Blue Ops website.
