Indian drone manufacturer, Garuda Aerospace has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Lockheed Martin Canada CDL Systems to integrate Garuda Aerospace’s Made-In-India drones with Lockheed Martin Canada CDL Systems’ advanced Uncrewed Aerial Systems (UAS) software solutions for defence and commercial purposes.

Agnishwar Jayaprakash, Founder and CEO, Garuda Aerospace, said, “I’m delighted and thrilled to be working with Lockheed Martin Canada CDL Systems. This partnership will give Garuda Aerospace a strong competitive edge to cement market dominance in several sectors.” Garuda Aerospace recently commenced its $30 million Series A round at $250 million valuation.

Both companies are working closely to build a strong data processing capability and develop joint algorithms which will cater to a wide range of drones and various drone-based service applications in sectors such as defence, agriculture, mining, large scale mapping and industrial inspection.

“For over 30 years our team has developed advanced software solutions for the UAS market and we look forward to working with Garuda Aerospace to bring that technology and experience to their Made-In-India drones. This collaboration is a testament to our commitment to support the growth of an indigenous defence and aerospace manufacturing ecosystem in India. This will be a step forward in bringing world class drone software solutions to diverse market segments in India and creating high tech job opportunities”, said Michael Baker, General Manager of Lockheed Martin Canada CDL Systems.

Garuda Aerospace boasts of a drone fleet of 400 drones and a well-trained team of over 500 pilots across 26 different cities.
