BrockTek’s UAS product line lands at Unmanned Systems Source

BrockTekSeptember 28, 2015 – The fixed wing product offering at Unmanned Systems Source now includes BrockTek’s line of aerial vehicles. The new partnership took effect September 1 and has generated a high level of interest from customers. “BrockTek’s aerial vehicles are a great addition to Unmanned Systems Source. And the integration, engineering and design support team they bring is equally exciting, as well,” said Jennifer Jerrick, President of the Women Owned Small Business. “Our aim is to offer consumers not just products but information and support so they can purchase or design a system that meets their mission needs. Thanks to this new partnership our customers have several more options in terms of selecting a vehicle with the payload capacity, flight endurance and price point that is right for their application and the engineering support to maximize their success.” The Havoc UAS is the largest platform offered by BrockTek; it boasts a 16 foot wingspan, 25 pound plus payload capacity and 18 hours of endurance when equipped with a fixed gear propeller. The Eel UAS by comparison offers a small frame and is easy to assemble without the use of tools; its 39 inch wingspan, 90 minute endurance and hand launch capability make it a great choice for numerous applications. “We wanted to partner with Unmanned Systems Source for a myriad of reasons. First and foremost, forming a channel partnership was an integral part of BrockTek's growth and strategy. A partnership of this nature provides incredible market guidance and, more importantly, provides a more in-depth understanding of specific customer needs and wants,” said Callie Groth, Director of Business Development. “Secondly, a channel partnership allows for us be more responsive to customers, which in turn, drives growth and profitability.” BrockTek is no stranger to the unmanned industry.  Formerly known as Brock Technologies, it was founded in 2006 by Keith and Jessica Brock and acquired by Aztera Holdings, LLC in July 2015. “Unmanned Systems Source is unlike any other company in the unmanned systems market today. Not only is it a leading provider of a variety of unmanned systems, its headquarters are also right in our backyard. It only made sense to partner with a company who understands the vision of BrockTek, its platforms and the value of working together,” said Groth.
