AAR Corp., a leading provider of aviation services to commercial and government operators, MROs, and OEMs, has announced a distribution agreement with Cloud Cap Technology, a Collins Aerospace Mission Systems business. Under the terms of the agreement, AAR will stock, promote, and sell the TASE and Piccolo imaging payload and flight management systems used by manned and unmanned airborne applications to support Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions.
The agreement expands AAR’s presence in the Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) market, building on AAR’s civil and government relationships, as well as its proven supply chain and sales support processes. The products are integral and adaptable to a wide range of surveillance and tactical missions, making them suitable for UAS manufacturers, airframers, as well as civil and government operators.
