Electric Fuel to Develop Zinc-Air Batteries for UAVs

Advanced Battery Technology, Mar 2005

Arotech Corp.'s subsidiary, Electric Fuel Battery Corp., will develop prototype zinc-air batteries for small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to achieve extended flight times. The funding is expected to cover development costs.

Arotech has previously announced contracts with the Israeli Defense Agency to develop prototype zinc-air batteries for micro aerial vehicles (MAVs) and has demonstrated that its fourth generation zinc-air batteries achieve longer mission durations than that of high performance lithium batteries.
