Aerospace Industrial Development Corporation (AIDC) is advancing its push into unmanned systems, announcing a new partnership with US-based Vantor Technologies to license its Raptor Guide software—technology designed to enable precise navigation in environments where GPS is unavailable or jammed. The deal grants AIDC integration and distribution rights, allowing the company to support domestic drone makers with testing, validation, and technical services.

With the 3GPP Release 19 standard nearing its freeze and SpaceX’s Starship poised to slash launch costs, direct-to-device (D2D) satellite communication is emerging as the telecom industry’s next major arena of competition.

Anli International Chairman Chen-Kun Hsu says the company’s push into two major markets—automotive components and server hardware—is beginning to take shape. At the same time, Anli’s drone program has moved successfully from development into volume production and shipments, demonstrating that the company is strengthening its cross-disciplinary integration capabilities and its expertise in high-precision structural parts.
