Rocket One announced public safety program wins at its recently acquired Tracer Drone Technologies business, covering four law enforcement agencies, two sheriff’s departments and two fire departments.
The engagements include fleet additions and program support for organizations establishing new unmanned aircraft systems programs, expanding existing operations and preparing personnel for deployment.
Tracer Drone has supported agencies developing capabilities for missions including interior clearing and search and rescue. The activity gives Rocket One an operating foundation to expand its public safety drone services following the acquisition.
Tracer’s offering spans multiple stages of program development. It provides FAA Part 107 study assistance for prospective remote pilots preparing for the certification exam, along with fleet development and turnkey Drone as First Responder systems.
That range allows the company to work with agencies launching their first drone programs and those seeking more advanced capabilities. Its services address equipment selection, pilot preparation and implementation requirements as organizations move toward operational readiness.
Rocket One intends to develop the existing agency relationships, pursue additional opportunities and expand Tracer’s role in public safety drone programs. CEO Robb Knie described the recent wins as evidence of the breadth of the acquired business.
The company’s broader portfolio spans AI infrastructure, advanced semiconductor technologies, space and defense systems, and autonomous platforms. Its activities include licensed spintronic and nanomagnetic computing technologies, alongside Swarm Stage AI, a drone-swarm threat-emulation and counter-drone training platform.
Within that portfolio, Tracer supplies drone hardware, software, training and technical support to public safety, commercial and enterprise customers. The newly announced engagements reflect that business’s focus on helping organizations deploy and maintain aerial programs, from initial planning through fleet expansion.
