The UAE-based Versa Aerospace has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Aeroter, one of the portfolio companies of the UAE’s Strategic Development Fund (SDF), for the civil or commercial operation of the VRT300, an unmanned helicopter.

Under the MOU, Versa Aerospace is working on developing a long-term relationship where it will manage sales of VRT300 unmanned helicopters for commercial use in different countries of the region. 

Furthermore, Versa Aerospace is developing a proposal to design and develop a comprehensive training program where they would act as the primary training provider for Aeroter’s unmanned platforms.

Versa Aerospace will use its training expertise to provide a full suite of innovative and digitally integrated curriculum and courseware for future remote pilots. The new training program will be tailored to meet the demands of customers, with operational and mission-specific inputs ranging from light to heavy payloads.
