Top drone manufacturer moves from Neodesha to Wichita

The American drone industry is exploding. Since COVID-19 came ashore, more and more consumers desire U.S. built products. One of the largest publicly-traded, U.S. drone manufactures began in a town of less than 2,500 residents in far-eastern Kansas. On Aug. 4, AgEagle Aerial Systems, who manufactures drones in Neodesha, Kansas, decided to move their manufacturing operations from Wilson County to Wichita. The 12,000 square foot facility is located near the Wichita Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport. This warehouse, which will be ready in September, will house AgEagle’s drone and sub-component manufacturing and assembly, custom design, engineering and testing operations.
