Ecuador Aerospace Industries

UAV systems in Ecuador

Specialized services and provision of multi-rotor and fixed-wing UAVs for search and rescue, mining inspection, gas and oil pipeline inspection, multi-gas monitoring, firefighting, building cleaning, and cargo and delivery operations.

The platform

VTOL

Our line of fixed-wing drones with vertical take-off and landing combines aerodynamic efficiency with operational versatility. Built for mapping, surveillance and logistics missions, with no runway or launch infrastructure required.

Local capability

On-premise assembly with full support

Under an exclusive agreement with international manufacturers, we assemble state-of-the-art drones locally in Ecuador. That gives operators four things importing cannot:

  • Reduced import costs
  • Technical support in national territory
  • Immediate after-sales logistics
  • Adaptation to local regulations and conditions

Our technicians are trained in assembly, payload configuration, maintenance and functional testing, so the UAV system is fully operable from the moment it is delivered.

Where they fly

Fields of application

Eleven operational domains, from precision agriculture to civil infrastructure, served by the same airframes with different payload configurations.

Primary

Surveillance and civil protection

Threat monitoring, damage assessment, search and rescue mission support, and critical cargo transport.

Aerial view of agricultural land surveyed by drone

Precision agriculture

Multispectral photogrammetry, aerial fumigation, crop monitoring, plant counting and water management.

Drone conducting perimeter surveillance

Security and surveillance

Perimeter patrolling, border control, and surveillance at events and in areas of difficult access.

Firefighting operation supported from the air

Firefighting

Fire detection, hotspot monitoring, emergency response and situational awareness in hazardous, hard-to-reach areas.
