The Battlefield International Inc. EnduroLink™ fuel coupling system has reached a significant milestone this summer. Our EnduroLink™ quick connect is a critical component in the Textron Shadow UAV platform. Textron Systems Unmanned Systems, a Textron Inc. (NYSE:TXT) business, announced this summer that its Shadow® Tactical Unmanned Aircraft System (TUAS) has surpassed one million total flight hours, becoming the only unmanned aircraft system of its size to accomplish this significant milestone. Each Shadow flight hour was achieved with several of Battlefield International’s now “world standard” EnduroLink™ coupler sets on board.

In order to reach our Land Systems market in the shortest possible timeline, we have constructed 50 sample set cases with examples of our major contract winning solution of LS (Low Pressure 1000psi) and HP (High Pressure 5000psi) quick disconnect couplers. BAE Systems staff are seen here as they visit our booth to meet with Michael Falk and to take possession of their sample case (CANSEC in Ottawa May 25th and 26th 2016). Our LS and HP product groups were designed to specifically meet MIL-STDs while also being engineered to suit the harsh real-world conditions of the military land system and marine industries. Our LS and HP series couplers enable rapid engine and major systems swapping on the land vehicle or marine system and are used to connect and disconnect the high and low pressure hydraulic, fuel, coolant and pneumatic lines The CANSEC show in Ottawa was a huge success for us in gaining exposure for our Land Systems and Marine Specific product groups. If you are a land or marine systems engineer or supply chain manager, please contact us to inquire about receiving a sample case. These large and very complete coupling sample cases are shipped prepaid at no cost and are yours to keep.

Battlefield will be exhibiting at CANSEC, Canada’s Global Defense and Security trade show in Ottawa, May 25th to 26th 2016. We will be displaying our Land System and Marine-specific quick connect solution. These product groups were selected by GDLS Canada for use in their massive AB LAV contract and will be of great interest to this specific industry. Please visit us at our booth # 1520.

We are pleased to report that our newly appointed International Sales Manager Michael Falk has successfully begun his sales efforts at the AUVSI Exponential trade show in New Orleans from May 3rd to 5th 2016. Michael will be meeting with and taking care of our extensive list of UAV customers in support of our now world standard EnduroLink quick couplers and our extensive UAV-specific product group. Mike is also tasked with ensuring the entire Land Systems and Marine industry realizes the benefits of our LS and HP quick coupling products. Battlefield's LS and HP series are the only Mil Spec designed quick connect couplers that have been modified and refined to meet the exact and specific needs of this demanding and harsh military market through extreme testing on actual test vehicles.

The marketing campaign of our military quick connect solution to the world Land Systems industry has begun as planned and ahead of schedule. After securing a massive General Dynamics Land Systems Canada multi-year, multi-million dollar contract for our new highly efficient land systems couplings, we officially and successfully began our expanded and focused marketing effort. We are pleased to report we just completed a successful product presentation with Purchasing and Engineering at Textron Land Systems and Marine in Louisiana on Monday May 2nd 2016.
