Agilis Air profile
Agilis Air is a private defense hardware manufacturer that produces low-cost Group 1 tactical uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) for military and allied defense buyers.
What Agilis Air does
Agilis Air Manufactures the Remora ARQ, a Group 1 first-person-view (FPV) tactical reconnaissance drone produced in Ohio with a supply chain compliant with the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Distributes airframes directly to military units, federal agencies, and international allies via catalog purchasing channels like the U.S. Army UAS Marketplace Cleared tier at a $1,250 unit price. Uses early venture capital and corporate investment to finance assembly facilities, flight certifications, and three-week order turnaround times.
The product lines that define the company for research purposes:
- Remora ARQ
This profile is qualitative by design. It carries no share price, no price target, no valuation multiple, and no rating — those change faster than any page can honestly track, and the filings linked below are the authoritative source for them.
Agilis Air drone lineup
The current public product record does not identify a complete aircraft lineup.
No complete-aircraft offering is catalogued for this company; it is tracked here as an unmanned-systems enabler.
Statuses are editorial classifications from the company’s current public catalog: active means currently presented for sale, delivery, or program work; development means publicly disclosed but not a mature production offering; legacy means retained for historical or installed-fleet coverage.
Recent contracts & awards
A dated log of the specific contracts, orders, funding, and deployments reported for Agilis Air, each tied to its primary source. This is a record of what was announced — a "selection", "award", or "partnership" is not the same as obligated money, so read each source before treating a figure as revenue. No figure appears here unless a source reported it.
- Agilis Air Remora ARQ Listed on U.S. Army UAS Marketplace for Direct Purchase
Agilis Air's $1,250 Remora ARQ tactical drone was added to the U.S. Army UAS Marketplace's Cleared tier, authorizing direct purchases by Army units, government agencies, and allied forces. Marketplace eligibility establishes purchasing authority rather than an obligated contract award or guaranteed procurement volume. Researchers should track verified unit purchase orders or subsequent defense procurement notices to measure actual revenue flow.

Where Agilis Air sits in the value chain
Agilis Air is a pure-play: unmanned systems are the business rather than one line inside it, so the P&L moves with drone demand and has little else to cushion a slow procurement year.
Its disclosed activity spans aerial drones. That placement is the single most useful thing to fix in your head before reading any coverage, because the same headline means different things at different layers: a large platform award is transformative for a pure-play, material but diluted for a diversified contractor, and only indirectly relevant to a component supplier whose exposure arrives later as build-rate demand. Retail coverage routinely applies one story to all three layers at once. For the layer-by-layer comparison across the sector, see the drone stocks research shortlist and the list of publicly traded drone companies.
What to watch
The signals worth tracking are structural, not price-based — they tell you whether the business is changing shape, which is what eventually shows up in the numbers.
- Order conversion rates and transaction volume generated through direct-purchase access on the U.S. Army UAS Marketplace Cleared tier.
- Delivery consistency against stated manufacturing timelines, specifically whether Ohio facilities sustain a three-week shipment window under volume scaling.
- Strategic disclosures from public investor AgEagle Aerial Systems (NYSE: UAVS) clarifying equity stake size, manufacturing support, or component integration terms.
- Adoption rates across allied defense forces evaluating low-cost airframes under the $2,300 Drone Dominance Program pricing threshold.
How to research Agilis Air
Every question below has one authoritative source, and using the wrong source is how most retail research goes wrong.
| Research question | Where the answer lives | What to look for |
|---|---|---|
| Is there anything to buy? | SEC EDGAR full-text search | Whether any registration statement exists at all — absent one, there is no public security. |
| Is the government work real? | Official DoD contract announcements | Awarding service and scope of work, rather than a company-issued announcement. |
| What is the acquisition pathway? | DIU and DARPA program pages | Whether the work runs through non-traditional agreements or a conventional program of record. |
| How would exposure even work? | Fund holdings disclosures | Whether any listed vehicle discloses a stake — indirect exposure is usually thin and unstated. |
- Review Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings from investor AgEagle Aerial Systems via the SEC EDGAR database to monitor financial terms, capital outlays, and potential distribution agreements involving Agilis Air.
- Check official U.S. Army program updates and UAS Marketplace catalog schedules to verify Cleared tier compliance status and catalog item additions for the Remora ARQ.
- Track defense contract awards and military unit purchase orders published on the System for Award Management to measure unit-level adoption of the platform.
One failure mode is worth naming explicitly: a company announcement describing a "selection", "award", or "partnership" is not the same as obligated money, and the two are easy to conflate because they use the same vocabulary. Check the official record before treating either as revenue. Our full approach is documented on the methodology page.
