Abstract: Ian Glenn will provide an overview of Canada’s ScanEagle experience – where ING delivered 30,000 hours of UAV ISR support directly to Canadian troops on the ground – flying more during this deployment than all other UAV programs in Canada combined, as well as the company’s current deployment with the Royal Canadian Navy. Based on this success in combat operations ING’s team is now involved in delivering UAV services for various roles to the civil sector.
