ADASI and Northrop team on unmanned aircraft plan

Northrop Grumman, the US defence contractor, is linking with an Abu Dhabi technology firm to investigate jointly developing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

The move could help the emirate transfer technology and know-how of unmanned systems from one of the world’s leading producers as part of its aims to develop a home-grown aerospace industry.

Northrop has signed a “proprietary information exchange” agreement with Abu Dhabi Autonomous Systems Investment (ADASI), said Tom Rodabaugh, the Middle East vice president of Northrop Grumman.
