Who we are
Engineers who have
been on the range
OPTEC Solutions is a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business with a deep background in developing, testing, integrating, and maintaining manned and unmanned systems.
Our team has designed, integrated, and fielded complete systems across military and commercial UAS programs, including international work and Foreign Military Sales. We read a requirement the way the customer wrote it, and we deliver hardware that flies rather than a paper solution.
Whether you need support on a system already in the field or an emerging capability integrated and tailored to your requirements, we cover the full technical span.
UAS
Unmanned aerial systemsDesign, integration, test, and sustainment for military and commercial customers.
INT
System integrationAirborne, ground, and communications segments brought together into one working system.
T&E
Flight test & evaluationDoD Design of Experiments certified. DT and OT planning, execution, and reporting.
PM
Program managementOversight from CDR through delivery, with schedule and risk tracked in the open.
FMS
International & FMSExperience selling, delivering, and supporting across allied partner nations.
What we offer
Services
Six lines of work, from the first requirements meeting through sustainment of a fielded system.
Flight test & evaluation
DoD Design of Experiments certified planning and execution for manned and unmanned aircraft. We make sure the system is ready before it reaches the range.
Training & technical writing
Instructor-led curriculum, on-site and in-field delivery, and complete operator and maintainer technical manuals for the system and its support equipment.
Selected program
Drawing board to
field in 120 days
For the USMC Tier II Concept Demonstrator we designed, built, integrated, and tested every major segment: five fully autonomous T-16 aircraft, a NATO STANAG compliant ground control station, a pneumatic launcher and transporter, and a net capture recovery system — each piece inside the Marine Corps two-person, 150-pound lift limit.
The system was then tested under simulated combat conditions at Naval Weapons Center China Lake.
