Through the interaction and cooperation authorized by this CRADA, the DOD and Hawkeye Systems will develop technologies tailored for Department of Defense needs.
“The CRADA is a true testament to the work and capabilities of our core technology and systems, and we’re excited to be collaborating with the DOD,” said Corby Marshall, founder and chief executive officer of Hawkeye Systems. “At Hawkeye, we have the ability to create sustaining products that will not only help improve DOD operations, but also can make a difference for the different components of the DOD that benefit from our unique technologies.”
Hawkeye Systems will also add U.S. Navy Consultant, Shawn Petre, as a principal consultant focusing on all issues related to the Department of Defense. Mr. Petre has served in the U.S. Navy and will bring over 22 years of experience as a Naval Aviator.
“Hawkeye’s cutting-edge technology has received high praise from the U.S. military, which is extremely encouraging. The military needs their technology capabilities to assist military operations regarding ground and airborne surveillance and reconnaissance,” said Shawn Petre. “Having worked with the best teams in the Department of Defense, I understand the current needs that exist for Hawkeye’s technology and the gaps we can fill. I look forward to securing more contracts and opportunities for our company.”
