Mobilicom has successfully fulfilled an existing $2.3 million contract with a global drone supplier, delivering the final instalment of more than 200 Ground Controller Stations (GCS) valued at $470,000.

Tactical Ground Controller Stations Delivered Despite Global Supply Chain ChallengesThe tactical mobile Ground Controller Stations will be integrated within the customer’s range of tactical drones and small fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). The customer is one of the largest suppliers of drones, small unmanned aerial vehicles (sUAV) and robotics outside of the USA, with solutions used globally within the defense, security and commercial sectors.

Under the multi-year contract, Mobilicom has delivered over 600 of its Ground Controller Station units, which enable UAV mission control and operation.

“Despite global supply chain challenges, Mobilicom has leveraged its Asia-Pacific manufacturing capability to fulfil contract deliveries milestones. Mobilicom’s demonstrated ability to deliver cutting-edge solutions with scalable volume manufacturing capability has led to expansion into additional platforms with this global drone & robotics supplier.” said Oren Elkayam, Mobilicom CEO.

Oren Elkayam added; “Our growing end-to-end offering of smart solutions and cybersecurity for drones, robotics and autonomy platforms, including our industry-leading cybersecurity software, has enabled us to broaden our offerings to include new products and other smart solution components. This end-to-end strategy is a key differentiator for Mobilicom.”
