    We're backing the next generation of Veteran-led innovation. Three exceptional Veterans are joining the Skydio community through our 2025 Veterans Vehicle Scholarship. Each brings a mission that matters - from emergency response to regenerative agriculture to creating pathways for women Veterans. Meet this year's recipients: 🔴 Christopher Krull is building a service-disabled veteran-owned UAS business focused on emergency response and infrastructure inspections - while creating jobs for fellow Veterans through VR&E. ⚪ 𝗔𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗮 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘇 is using drone technology to open doors for women Veterans, creating community-based training programs and entrepreneurial opportunities where they're needed most. 🔵 Andrew Tuttle is integrating autonomous flight into regenerative agriculture education - training the next generation of farmers on climate-resilient practices with hands-on technology. To everyone who applied: the decision wasn't easy. The caliber of applications reinforced what we already knew - Veterans are driving some of the most impactful UAS work happening today. Applications reopen May 2026. Chris, Andrea, Andrew - we can't wait to see the work you do. 🇺🇸 🦾

    Norsk forsvarsindustri tar droner fra strategi til operativ evne. Vi i Oskar Pedersen AS er med 🦾   Som en del av regjeringens dronestrategi, bidrar Oskar Pedersen med X10D-droner fra SkydioForsvaret - Norwegian Armed Forces kapasiteter styrkes av innovative løsninger, og vår rolle er å bidra til at løsningen kommer ferdig testet og kvalitetssikret frem til sluttbrukerne. ✅   I tillegg til å levere dronene, er en viktig del av vår leveranse å sikre at de er mest mulig effektive i operativ bruk. Derfor har Oskar Pedersen sammen med Bergans Special Products utviklet en bæreløsning til M21-sekkene som lar dronepiloter transportere dronene trygt og enkelt 🪖   Oskar Pedersen har en bred portefølje av ledende droneløsninger innen UGV og UAV. En av dem er norske HiDE Industry, som har droner tilpasset nordområdenes krevende forhold 🥶 Vi ser frem til å bygge enda flere helhetlige løsninger for et bedre, fleksibelt og moderne forsvar.  Skydio Bergans of Norway HiDE Industry Foto: Forsvaret - Norwegian Armed Forces / Forsvarsdepartementet

    Unreal outcomes like this one are just another day at the RTIC for the San Francisco Police Department (SFPD). For the past 14 months, Skydio has supported SFPD's Drone as First Responder program – with the X10 flying approximately 95% of missions. These autonomous systems provide critical situational awareness when and where it's needed most, helping to protect both first responders and the communities they serve. Auto thefts, retail thefts, drug dealing, and more - Dock-based X10s have helped SF’s finest bring all types of crime down by ensuring the bad guys get caught. Now, we’re supporting the expansion of the DFR program with more Dock locations throughout the city. Grateful to continue supporting the officers who show up for San Franciscians every day.

    Friday was a blast! It was Teach-In and Knightro and I flew around and shared how drones are keeping us safe, the many employment opportunities and how we safely share the airspace with manned aviation! It was a moment when I was asked how fast does the drone fly and I dropped sssiiiixxxxx seeeevveeenn miles per hour! Crowd went nuts!😂
