Collaboration Delivers Best-In-Class Multispectral Sensor with Rugged, All-Weather VTOL Hardware to Advance UAS Capabilities in Agricultural and Research Applications

AgEagle Aerial Systems Inc. (NYSE: UAVS), a leading provider of advanced drone and aerial imaging solutions, is proud to announce the successful integration and availability of its MicaSense RedEdge-Pâ„¢ multispectral camera on Ascent AeroSystems' rugged SPIRITâ„¢ and SPARTANâ„¢ coaxial UAV platforms.

This fully integrated solution, now available for order, delivers unparalleled agricultural and environmental intelligence in a seamless, quick-connect package. The MicaSense RedEdge-P is an industry-leading multispectral and panchromatic sensor, featuring five narrow multispectral bands and a high-resolution panchromatic imager for precise vegetation data. Paired with Ascent's modular, all-weather SPIRIT and SPARTAN platforms, the RedEdge-P enables operators to capture sharper imagery, process data faster, and make informed decisions across agriculture, environmental monitoring, and research applications.

This milestone follows the strategic collaboration between AgEagle and Ascent AeroSystems, announced in May of this year. The effort successfully paired the high-resolution RedEdge-P sensor with Ascent's high-performance UAVs. The result is a turnkey, NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act) compliant solution that enhances productivity and operational efficiency.
"The integration of the RedEdge-P with Ascent's SPIRIT and SPARTAN platforms represents a significant advancement in sensors for precision agriculture and environmental monitoring," said Bill Irby, CEO of AgEagle. "Our collaboration with Ascent AeroSystems delivers a robust, reliable system that empowers operators to streamline workflows and drive impactful results. We're excited to bring this advanced technology to market."

Ascent's SPIRIT and SPARTAN platforms, with their cylindrical coaxial design, IP56-rated all-weather protection, and class-leading endurance, are ideally suited for demanding missions requiring durability and precision. The RedEdge-P integration enhances these platforms' capabilities, making them a top choice for agricultural surveys, environmental research, or surveying land.

"The agricultural drone market is experiencing tremendous, rapid growth, and customers need reliable, high-performance, dependable platforms," said Peter Fuchs, President of Ascent AeroSystems. "With this successful integration, the rugged, reliable, all-weather design of the Spirit and the precision and efficiency of AgEagle's industry-leading RedEdge-P camera, we are showing what is possible for future growth within the agricultural sector."
