IDAHO AEROSPACE ALLIANCE SPOTLIGHT
Numerous Black Sage guests and cus-
tomers from around the world were on
hand for the demonstration. In 2017,
similar equipment from their company
was showcased at the world’s largest
air show in Paris.  
“We live in the age of drones and
this consumer technology is rapidly
advancing,” said Black Sage Manag-
ing Partner Ross Lamm, Ph.D. “Small
unmanned aircraft systems are a
genuine threat, with creative, ill-in-
tentioned people out there using them
to cause harm. This team has worked
with a strong sense of mission and
urgency to develop the system now
keeping our nation and its allies safe.”
