According to an online article in the Examiner (http://www.examiner.com/article/unmanned-aircraft-promise-to-remake-the-military-mantra) the market for UAV launchers is projected to increase 10-fold before the end of this decade. As one of the premium makers of UAV launchers, Hood Tech is pleased with that projection and happy to serve an expanding customer base, said Cory Roeseler, Hood Techs manager for launcher operations.
When in 1990 Hood Tech began producing UAV launchers and innovative retrieval systems for small UAVs, those innovations enabled
the elimination of runways for launch and retrieval. This freed aircraft for shipboard use, in rugged landscapes, and for other difficult locations. Showing their ruggedness and reliability, Hood Tech launchers have been used to initiate tens of thousands of flights under the extreme environments of combat in Iraq and Afghanistan and aboard ships in the oceans across the globe.
Dr. Andy von Flotow founded Hood Technology in Hood River, Oregon in 1993. Along with the design and manufacture of launch systems, Hood Technology:
Develops, tests, and manufactures stabilized imaging systems for a variety of UAVs and Monitors blade vibrations in industrial turbines and jet engines, a diagnostic method for predicting possible future failures.
