High Eye has announced the selection of its Airboxer VTOL UAV by the Dutch Navy. After an extensive study of maritime VTOL UAV systems, the Dutch Navy recognized the Airboxerโ€™s suitability for the challenging maritime domain.

With over a decade of development, the Airboxer has evolved to its current level through dedication and craftsmanship. The Dutch Navy has acknowledged the qualities of the Airboxer and the expertise of High Eye.

High Eye CEO Joost de Ruiter said, “The choice of the Airboxer is a milestone for High Eye. We are going all out to become a long-term partner of the Dutch Navy. Integrating all kinds of different payloads and embedding them in naval operations will be a learning and useful journey for us that will take our cooperation to the next level.

It is great news for us that after winning an international tender from the Ministry of Defense, High Eye has now also signed a contract with the Royal Navy. We see this as a reward for the hard work of our team but, above all, as an encouragement to continue. With these prestigious NATO customers, High Eye is ready to expand its international footprintโ€.
