UAV Corp is making significant strides toward its visionary SKY Hangar project, with land clearing now officially underway at its wholly owned Costin Airport. This marks the first major step toward the Q1 2025 groundbreaking of a cutting-edge facility that will shape the future of Lighter Than Air (LTA) Drone Technology.

"This isn't just another hangar—it's a cutting-edge facility designed to revolutionize aerial innovation. We are moving full speed ahead, and today marks the true beginning of something extraordinary," said Michael Lawson, CEO of UAV Corp. " The 'SKY' hangar represents years of dedication, innovation, and overcoming challenges like Hurricane Michael and the global pandemic. Now, with land clearing underway, we’re turning our vision into reality. This facility will be the heartbeat of our mission to lead the world in lighter-than-air technologies.”

The SKY Hangar will be a state-of-the-art facility purpose-built to house UAV Corp’s advanced Spherical and Cylinder Class Drone-Airships, pushing the boundaries of drone aviation and aerial reconnaissance. Construction is being spearheaded by industry leaders, with Legacy Building Solutions handling the hangar’s manufacturing and Winfield Construction leading the build as the general contractor.

This groundbreaking project will also serve as a hub for Atlantic Industrial Group (AIG), which will use the facility for SVTOL vehicle testing, and pilot training programs in partnership with UAV Corp. The SKY Hangar is more than just a structure—it’s a launchpad for next-generation aerospace advancements.
