As Insitu Inc. marks delivery of its 1,000th ScanEagle unmanned aircraft system (UAS), the company announces that it is expanding its UAS manufacturing capacity to continue to meet increasing customer needs for rapid solution fulfillment.

Insitu's new Stevenson, Wash., based facility will enable the company to increase output of its current UAS fleet and to expand production of Integrator, its next generation, multi-mission aircraft evolved from in-field experience of more than 180,000 operational flight hours.

"The great news behind the 1,000th ScanEagle is that the company's agility, robust supply chain, superior quality control and a tightly integrated delivery system are well in place to serve our customer.  These assets, combined with our increased production capacity, are indicative of our commitment to provide the customer with the highest quality UAS solutions," said Insitu Vice President of Product Operations Andrew J. Brignoli.

"Successfully reaching the 1,000th ScanEagle milestone is the result of a combined, coordinated effort by many dedicated professionals across the organization," said Insitu Vice President of Sales and Marketing Al Jackson.   "We are pleased to have served our customers with 1,000 ScanEagle systems and will continue to provide unparalleled, industry leading UAS solutions that meet and exceed customer requirements."
