The signing ceremony was held yesterday at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre during the International Defence Exhibition and Conference (IDEX) 2025.
"Through this collaboration, EPI will significantly expand its capabilities. This will include the establishment of a state-of-the-art facility to support the production of electromechanical systems," said Michael Deshaies, CEO of EPI.
General Atomics-Systems Integration Vice President Scott Sappenfield, said: "Working with EPI will mark a leap forward in the development and manufacturing of this advanced aviation technology.
"We expect to offer safe, affordable, high-performance solutions to replace legacy systems in military and commercial aircraft."
This project is enabled by the Tawazun Council (Tawazun Economic Program). A key milestone in the project will be the certification of EPI’s facility as a Part 145 repair centre. This will involve the production airworthiness certification process and the test and evaluation of prototype units, ensuring compliance with the highest industry standards.
