Meadowlark Aircraft Company is proud to support the North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) in its efforts to replace Chinese-manufactured drones with U.S.-made alternatives. At this year’s North Dakota Transportation Conference, our Chief Compliance Officer, JC Van Liere, spoke with KX News about how Meadowlark is positioned to meet the state’s growing UAV needs.
Addressing the Shift to Secure, U.S.-Made UAS Solutions
Drones have become a vital tool for transportation departments, assisting with bridge inspections, traffic monitoring, and infrastructure surveys. However, concerns over data security and supply chain reliability have led agencies like the NDDOT to seek American-made alternatives. As a North Dakota-based UAS manufacturer specializing in light Group 3 fixed-wing drones, Meadowlark is ready to deliver secure, high-performance solutions tailored to government and commercial needs.
Looking Ahead
Meadowlark is committed to working closely with NDDOT and other agencies to develop U.S.-made UAS solutions that enhance efficiency and security. We’re excited to continue these conversations and help shape the future of UAS in North Dakota.
