Maveric UAS® provides next generation capability at a great value with a low cost of ownership.

"It is our goal to support the warfighter. Having ATEC certifications means that we have a safe and reliable system," said Bryan da Frota, Chief Executive Officer of Prioria Robotics, Inc. "We believe as the mission changes and evolves, Maveric UAS® will become an instrumental component to meeting these missions."
