DUBAI AIR SHOW, UAE, November 14, 2011 – L-3 WESCAM announced today that it has
received an order from Abu Dhabi Autonomous Systems Investments Co. LLC (ADASI) for eight
MX™-10 electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) imaging systems. The turrets will be used to conduct
surveillance duties from the S-100 Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) platform. Deliveries will
begin in December 2011 and will be completed by March 2012.
“ADASI is a recognized leader in the Gulf region for this class of tactical UAS integration, and
we’re very pleased that its team has recognized the MX-10 as the most viable solution for the
region’s growing surveillance requirements,” said Paul Jennison, vice president of government
sales and business development for L-3 WESCAM. “ADASI flight tests with the MX-10 earlier
this year were very successful in showcasing both the superior surveillance capabilities and
nominal installation and integration requirements of our sensor systems.”
