“Autonomy [in aerial firefighting] isn't about replacing crews. It's about extending their reach.” — Peter Fuchs, Cofounder and CEO, Ascent AeroSystems In Vertical Magazine’s latest feature, Ben Forrest explores how first responders, OEMs, and technology providers are coming together today to rethink aerial autonomy, and what that means for the future of wildland firefighting. At Ascent, we are proud to support these mission-critical operations with our compact, rugged #coaxial #sUAV platforms. Designed for reliable operation in virtually any environment and the most extreme weather conditions, our NX30 and #BlueUASCleared SPIRIT are integral to the autonomous early fire detection, mapping, and monitoring systems of partners like Dryad Networks and Data Blanket, whose AI-enabled autonomous solutions are purpose-designed to identify, assess and ultimately suppress fires in even the most remote locations. Big and small, autonomous drones in firefighting is not a future concept—it’s already happening. The link to Ben's article is in the comments...and it is definitely worth the read. #AutonomousUAS #DroneTech #FirefightingTech #PublicSafety #AerialFirefighting #DronesForGood #UAV #NX30 #SPIRIT #BlueUAS Carsten Brinkschulte Omer Bar-Yohay (Photo credits: Data Blanket and Dryad Networks)

What will it really take to build a strong sustainable U.S. UAS industrial base? In this new piece by DroneLife's Miriam McNabb, Ascent AeroSystems' CEO Peter Fuchs and AUVSI — Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International’s Michael Robbins weigh in on why policy alignment is just the beginning—and why the next step must be action. Will procurement commitments follow? What do you think?🤔 At Ascent, building rugged, reliable, high-performance UAVs right here has been at the core of our business since the beginning. It's good policy. It's smart business. And we're ready.
