VT Group has acquired the Evergreen Unmanned Systems business unit, part of Evergreen International Aviation.
Evergreen Unmanned Systems provides support for unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) and has a proven performance record for both the ScanEagle and Maveric platforms, with over 10,000 hours of flight time operating the ScanEagle.
Evergreen provides training, logistics, operations, payload integration and testing to a range of government and commercial customers.
The acquisition will enable VT Group to extend its aviation support capabilities in fixed and rotary-wing aircraft and missile systems to the rapidly growing UAS market.
VT Group chief executive officer David Dacquino said that over the next ten years, the UAS market was on pace to more than double, representing significant opportunities for companies with the right capabilities.
“By combining VT Group’s extensive aviation support experience with Evergreen unmanned systems’ capabilities and performance record, we can offer an enhanced capability in this developing market,” he said.
