Airstar International, a manufacturer of radio controlled unmanned aircraft system (UAS) helicopters, announced that it will unveil a new line of cutting-edge helicopters at the upcoming International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) Exposition from September 29 – October 3 in San Diego. The new line was made possible in part by Airstar’s retooling of their factory into a world class production facility. As part of this effort, the company is focused on the goal of having a 100% Made in the USA product that can be securely used by the U.S. Government and to better meet the anticipated production demands in the growing UAS business.
Specifically, associated benefits will be realized through enhanced R&D investments, streamlining the production process, enhanced support for all phases of R&D from design innovation to flight testing and modification, enhanced quality control and security/chain of custody procedures.
“Today’s announcement is part of our focus on ramping up manufacturing, and increasing our market share, of UAS helicopters with Commercial, State, Local, and Federal Government agencies,” said Josef Joebstl, president and CEO of Airstar International.
“Our goal is to have a 100% Made in the USA product that can be securely used by the people that protect our nation’s infrastructure, borders and airspace, as well as our mission to create and keep jobs in the USA. We are currently creating and testing a new line of products and solutions directed towards meeting the needs of this important customer set, which we plan on introducing at the International Association of Chiefs of Police Exposition this fall,” emphasized Joebstl.
