We are excited to announce that KEF Robotics has secured a $1M TACFI from AFWERX to enhance our navigation software. This funding will boost our capabilities over open water, hazard avoidance during night operations and enhance manned/unmanned teaming performance. CEO Fraser Kitchell calls this the ‘Do Cool Stuff’ contract, aimed at making aircraft safer, smarter, and stealthier. A special thank you to Donald Gansberger and Phil Hahn. https://lnkd.in/eEmaQfDt
