The Fleet, The Sensors, The Systems
Our Current Fleet
We currently own and operate the King Air family (90 / 200 / 350), the Dash 8 family (100 / 200 / 300), the Gulfstream GIV, and the Boeing 737. We also operate the Twin Otter and Global 6000 under GOCO arrangements.
Sensors We've Flown
100+ sensor types flown across defense, civil, scientific, and research programs. EO/IR, SAR, LIDAR, hyperspectral, magnetometers, communications intelligence, atmospheric sampling, and many more.
We do not own sensors. Our customers do.
We don't compete with the equipment we integrate. The publicly listable portfolio is a partial picture. Additional sensor integrations are available for discussion under appropriate non-disclosure agreement.
Systems We've Built
150+ spray systems built since 1944. 50+ non-spray dispersal systems built since 1970, beginning with the first successful DC-3 water dump unit. Three generations of building spray and dispersal systems for agriculture, fire management, oil spill response, biosecurity, wildlife disease eradication, and emerging applications including lightning strike prevention.
For oil spill response, we operate Boeing 737-500 platforms with an FAA-STCed dispersal system, designed and built in-house. As of today, it is the only certified system of its kind operating in the world.
How The Work Fits Together
The Full Lifecycle, Carried By One Organization
When the same organization carries your platform through every stage — overhaul, modification, integration, flight, sustainment — knowledge of your platform and your mission compounds across years of work. No vendor handoffs. No interface losses. The relationship deepens as the work continues.
Engage Us For Any Single Activity
If the full lifecycle isn't where the work sits today, that's fine. Buy any one of our five activities — Overhaul, Modify, Integrate, Fly, or Maintain — on the contract structure that matches the work. Time and materials for engineering. Flight-hour rates for operations. Discrete pricing for discrete services.
Two Uses, Five Activities
Data Collection
Sensors, surveys, surveillance, monitoring — flown on platforms built and operated for the work.
Dispersal
Spray systems, dispersal systems, aerial application of any payload. Three generations of building these systems in-house.
The five activities are each priced and contracted on the structure that matches the work. Engaged individually, or assembled across the full lifecycle of your platform and mission.
Find Your Mission
Data Collection
ISR
Intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance platforms for defense and intelligence customers.
Maritime Patrol
Long-endurance airborne surveillance over water, for sovereign and multinational customers.
Airborne Data Acquisition
Custom sensor integration and operations for scientific, geophysical, atmospheric, and environmental programs. Long-duration platforms, cabin-class instrument bays, and the operational discipline that a multi-week campaign requires.
Fire Management
Aircraft, modifications, and operations supporting fire agencies: fuel surveys, lightning strike prevention, fire surveillance, and lead plane coordination. We do not operate fire retardant tankers.
Dispersal
Aerial Application
Aerial dispersal for agriculture, oral rabies vaccine, and emerging applications. The original capability of the enterprise.
Sterile Insect Technique
Continuous SIT operations since 1992, across 10+ countries. The longest-running such program in continuous service.
Oil Spill Response
Boeing 737-500 platforms operating an FAA-STCed dispersal system. As of today, the only certified system of its kind in the world.
By Market
Defense
Special-mission platforms and operations for defense customers worldwide. In the United States, our work has served the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and SOCOM. Internationally, we serve allied air forces and sovereign customers across multiple regions. We work primarily as a subcontractor and value the prime partnerships we serve. Ownership models include COCO, COCO-to-GOCO, and GOCO.
Civil
Special-mission platforms and operations for civil agencies worldwide. In the United States, our work has served USDA, Interior, Commerce, and NASA. Internationally, we serve ministries across multiple regions on biosecurity, wildfire management, agricultural protection, and environmental response. We work primarily as prime contractor on civil programs. Missions include Aerial Application, Sterile Insect Technique, Fire Management, Oil Spill Response, and Airborne Data Acquisition.
Flight Test
You've worked hard to bring something to the point where it needs to fly. It would be our honor to help you fly it. Bring your sensor, your measurement campaign, your research question — we'll work alongside you on integration, operations, and the details that determine whether a flight campaign succeeds. Our customers include national labs, FFRDCs, UARCs, service labs, and university research programs.
By Activity
Overhaul
Airframe and engine overhaul services for modified aircraft.
Modify
Aircraft modification engineering and execution for new mission requirements.
Integrate
Sensor and system integration onto modified platforms.
Fly
Operational flight for your mission. Aircraft, crews, and operations dedicated to the work you need flown.
Maintain
Sustainment, maintenance, and lifecycle support for operational aircraft.
