CenTauri Solutions, LLC (CenTauri) announced that it has entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement with Unmanned Aerial Systems, Inc. (UAS) for the purposes of providing long dwell, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) systems to the United States Department of Defense (DoD) and the various components of the United States Intelligence Community (IC). Under the Agreement, UAS will provide mission appropriate models of its Nightwind family of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and CenTauri will act as the prime contractor and systems integrator.

"CenTauri is delighted to have UAS as part of our team providing cutting edge ISR solutions to DoD and the IC," said CenTauri Managing Partner, Glenn Beach. "Their Nightwind UAVs represent the most capable, flexible and cost conscious platform choices available in today's marketplace," said Beach. "We believe that, together, CenTauri and UAS can offer some unbeatable ISR solutions to today's warfighter."

"Working with CenTauri is a natural fit for UAS," said UAS President and CEO, Sandy Mangold. "Combining our UAV technology with CenTauri's extensive expertise in long dwell ISR solutions will help ensure that we can rapidly field, low-cost ISR solutions that will greatly exceed the end user's expectations."
