Four more Belgium-based businesses have been selected by General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI),  to join five previously identified companies to support the development of MQ-9B SkyGuardian RPA for Belgium.

AeroSimulators Group (ASG), AIRobot, ALX Systems and Hexagon will now join Team SkyGuardian, which already includes five Belgium companies – SABCA, Thales Belgium, Esterline, Newtec and DronePort.

“The addition of these four companies to Team SkyGuardian will further enhance the capabilities of SkyGuardian and build on our already strong business partnerships in Belgium,” said Linden Blue, CEO, GA-ASI.

“GA-ASI looks forward to working with our Belgian teammates to make the MQ-9B procurement a success.”

Based in Belsele, Belgium, ASG specializes in the delivery of ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) training. AIRobot – a company based at DronePort in Sint Truiden, Belgium – focuses on developing drone performance equipment for easy, precise and safe professional operations.

AIRobot will develop automated materials detection using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Hyper-Spectral Imagery (HSI). ALX Systems is an Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) solution provider based in Liège, Belgium specializing in autonomous UAV systems.

They will work with GA-ASI to increase performance of object detection using AI and synthetic Full Motion Video (FMV). Hexagon’s Geospatial division, with an office in Leuven, Belgium, specializes in software solutions and geospatial tools for visualizing location information, such as auto-routing UAS and creating a smart digital reality.
