"I am delighted and thrilled to be working with Lockheed Martin Canada CDL Systems. This partnership will give Garuda Aerospace a strong competitive edge to cement market dominance in several sectors," said Agnishwar Jayaprakash, founder and chief executive officer, Garuda.
"...Garuda Aerospace has built a tremendous order book with immense credibility to deliver drones to various sectors and this is why global corporations like Lockheed Martin have faith in Garuda as worthy partners," he said.
On the pact, general manager of Lockheed Martin Canada CDL Systems Michael Baker said, "This collaboration is a testament to our commitment to support the growth of an indigenous defence and aerospace manufacturing eco system in India." "This will be a step forward in bringing worldclass drone software solutions to diverse market segments in India and create high-tech job opportunities," he added.
