ANDm reported, the company explained that the acquisition allows Tekever to integrate Flowcopter technology, with planned application, among others, in areas such as logistics and search and rescue and disaster response.

The operation is part of the Overmatch programme, a Tekever long-term investment plan worth GBP 400 million (about EUR 233 million) aimed at expanding autonomy capacities in the UK.
