Key drone innovation forum for the French Army features eBee VISION flight demonstration

WICHITA, Kan., Feb. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (NYSE: UAVS) a leading provider of best-in-class unmanned aerial systems (UAS), sensors and software solutions for customers worldwide in the commercial and government verticals, announces it recently completed a successful flight demonstration of its eBee VISION Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) UAS platform at the French Army’s 61st Artillery Regiment’s event, FID25-61e RA Chaumont. The drone innovation forum was conducted January 30-31, 2025 and attended by the Company in conjunction with its French reseller partner Flying Eye.

AgEagle CEO Bill Irby commented, “We continue to strengthen and broaden our relationship with the French Army through our partner Flying Eye, who completed training in January to become certified eBee VISION operators. This strategic union is expected to build upon the success of our largest single order in AgEagle’s history, valued at $3.4M, completed with the French Army in Q4 2024. We look forward to leveraging this momentum as we continue to expand the global footprint of our UAS products within both government and commercial verticals.”

The eBee VISION is a state-of-the-art ISR UAS, designed to provide tactical flexibility, durability, and efficiency. Its unique features and performance metrics will be evaluated during a series of rigorous field exercises, providing valuable insights into its applicability in diverse operational scenarios.

The 61st artillery regiment (61e RA) of Chaumont is the original image intelligence regiment of the French Army. To fulfill its mission, it implements drones (pilotless aircraft) and is equipped with means of receiving satellite images. With a history spanning more than a century, the 61st Artillery Regiment has distinguished itself over the decades by demonstrating its tactical know-how, which has earned it numerous military distinctions. Both through its historical weapon, artillery, and later in the field of intelligence and the implementation of drones, the Black Devils have served their country with the courage and determination that honors their elders. This precious heritage gives the 61st Artillery Regiment an extraordinary singularity, which continues to flourish today.

Simon Leroy Co-CEO of Flying Eye commented, “We are proud to represent AgEagle on the French market. The eBee VISION fills a gap that was unaddressed so far by UAS manufacturers and answers the needs of both our public and private customer base. Its unique performance and its advanced features make the VISION stand out in its category. 2024 has seen Flying Eye completing the largest sales of eBee VISION ever, we expect 2025 to be even more successful.”
