General Atomics setting up new office in Dayton - Dayton Business Journal
General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc.
says it will open an office in the Mission Point Office Park, 2601 Mission Point Blvd. in Beavercreek. Officials didn’t immediately respond
to queries about the size of the new office or how many it will employ.
Drones, or unmanned aerial systems, have been a major target for new
investment in Dayton, as the industry is expected to expand to a
multibillion-dollar endeavor employing thousands in the next decade.
Local leaders and federal funding have all turned to supporting more
companies in the drone business coming to Dayton.
General Atomics works on technology related to UAS such as sensors,
radars, control stations, lasers, antennae and and training. It has an
extensive history working with military aircraft such as the MQ-1
Predator, the MQ-9 Reaper, and other models currently in development
with the U.S. Air Force.
