Strategic Logix Announced as Premier Sponsor of DCOMP25
Domo Tactical Communications and Red Cat Partner as Gold and Silver Sponsors Respectively

FAYETTEVILLE, NC – The Fayetteville Cumberland Economic Development Corporation (FCEDC) is proud to announce Strategic Logix, Domo Tactical Communications, and Red Cat as top-tier sponsors of the upcoming drone competition, DCOMP25. Their support of this event demonstrates their dedication to driving progress and innovation in unmanned air systems.

Premier Sponsor, Strategic Logix, is passionate about improving defense and public safety through modernization, serving clients in more than 10 countries and 20 states. Their team provides cutting-edge tactical technology and procurement solutions for military and federal missions. They also provide the Rapid Reconfigurable Systems Line, a modular, scalable, US-made, and NDAA-compliant attack Drone Ecosystem for the US Department of Defense.

Strategic Logix will have pilots on-site to provide a quality check on the racing lanes, coach operator participants through the courses, and assist with drone repairs as needed throughout the competition. The company will also provide premium prizes for the competition winners.

“It’s the kind of hands-on competition that helps the services identify what works, scale it fast, and strengthen the domestic industrial base,” said Jeremy Schnipke, Chief Executive Officer of Strategic Logix. “We’re sponsoring DCOMP to accelerate practical innovation—putting emerging tech, tactics, and teams on the same course”.

Gold Sponsor, Domo Tactical Communications, will be on-site during the competition to provide radios for participants to use, as well as technical support to assist with real-time integration, configuration, and demonstrations.

Domo Tactical specializes in developing technologies that ensure unmatched interoperability, resilience, and assurance in mission-critical moments. With operations in over 150 countries, they are known worldwide for advanced communication solutions within the Military, Broadcast, Law Enforcement, Unmanned Systems, Commercial, and NGO markets.

“With Domo Tactical’s support, we know the event will run seamlessly,” said Ferd Irizarry (BG, Ret., USAR), President of the Fayetteville Military Affairs Council. “I can’t wait to see their technology in action.”

During the event, Silver Sponsor Red Cat will reveal their brand-new flight system, FANG FPV, designed as a gateway FPV to allow defense and security organizations the ability to use/procure FPV-style drones for a variety of missions and use cases. Red Cat is a leading provider of storage, analytics, and software for the drone industry. Through multiple platforms, the company provides air, land, and sea capabilities for military, government, and commercial operations.

“When we heard about DCOMP25 we knew it was the perfect opportunity to showcase our new product,” says Jason Gunter, VP of Technology & Innovation at Red Cat. “We haven’t seen any other drone competition with this combination of academia, military, and industry participants. It’ll be a fantastic way to showcase how Red Cat can support everyone working on UAS innovation”.

“We are extremely grateful for these exceptional partners and all our sponsors who are helping make DCOMP25 a success”, said FCEDC Executive Vice President, Rob Patton. “This event not only provides collaboration amongst the teams competing but also provides an opportunity for everyone to network with some of the best companies within the UAS industry”.
