Signing the agreement 

The General Authority for Military Industries (GAMI) signed an agreement with Saudi Arabian Military Industries (SAMI) today for the development of a drone, to be named “Sky Guardian”.
 

The agreement is aimed to build a regionally and globally leading innovative technological base by developing, manufacturing and localizing the drone systems, according to the issued statement.
 

Furthermore, SAMI signed an agreement with Prince Sultan Defense Studies and Research Center to work on developing that drone that represents the product of the center’s various research and development projects. This comes with the aim of presenting a national product that is in line with the requirements of beneficiary entities, which will help achieve the main goal of localizing more than 50% of the Kingdom’s purchases of military equipment and services by 2023.
