Yep...that's about 16 months old. I believe somebody on here said that agreement was not renewed.
Thank God!!! For a minute there we were all worried that you didn't get "it".
Btw...what was "it" anyway?
A little light on the volume today.
Wouldn't it become a production model after a set has been sold to the DoD? And not another "new prototype"? Please clarify your post. Thanks!
Did they also photoshop the DOD contract award?
Sounds like for some reason you are still getting the freebie highlighted words. Maybe you should PM Meatloaf or Dave?
I was just telling Flo my experience with those.
Actually, if you are a freebie on Ihub, there are specific words that are highlighted in various posts. And if you accidentally run your cursor over the highlighted word, a pop-up will appear. But you can close out the pop-up at the upper right corner of the pop-up. I never had that until I became a freebie. Never had that when I was a subscriber. Hope this helps. Btw...usually the highlighted word is green and underlined.
It's also linked off of the gtc-usa site as well.
Global Telesat Awarded United States Department of Defense Contract for Blimp in a Boxâ„¢ Aerostat Systems
Blimp in a Boxâ„¢ Systems to Support the Warfighter With Mobile ISR at the Platoon Level
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FL--(Marketwire - Jan 17, 2013) - World Surveillance Group Inc. (OTCQB: WSGI), a developer of lighter-than-air unmanned aerial vehicles ("UAVs") and related technologies, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Global Telesat Corp. ("GTC"), has been awarded a $605,000 contract from the United States Department of Defense for a set of Blimp in a Boxâ„¢ ("BiB") aerostat systems. The contract award includes on-location support for technical fact gathering, installation and training for the BiB systems. The BiB systems will be delivered to an army base where they are intended to provide semi-persistent, mobile intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance ("ISR") at the platoon level. Delivery, installation and on-site training of the initial BiB systems, spares and payloads are scheduled to be completed by the end of March.
The BiB aerostat system is designed to provide real-time day/night high definition footage for ISR, detection of improvised explosive devices ("IEDs"), border security and other governmental and civilian uses. The turn-key BiB system is packaged in a standard size crate that is mounted to a trailer and towed from the back of a MAT-V, HUMVEE, pickup truck or other comparable vehicle and can be rapidly deployed within minutes by a two man crew. With the push of a button, the system is activated, the prepackaged envelope, which carries a day/night electro-optical/infrared camera, automatically inflates to the applicable pressure for the mission and is secured to the vehicle by a data capable tether. The BiB system is released from the vehicle by an automated launch and recovery system to an operational altitude appropriate for the application. Once deployed to the operational altitude, the BiB system can provide critical detection capabilities for several miles and the vehicle can proceed on its mission through any terrain with the BiB system fully functional. Following completion of a mission, the BiB system is designed to quickly and automatically be retrieved and can either be mounted inflated allowing the vehicle to move on to its next destination where the BiB system can be re-deployed, or the BiB system can be deflated and re-packed into the self contained crate.
WSGI President and CEO Glenn D. Estrella stated, "We are honored that GTC has been selected by the United States Department of Defense to provide a system that supports our troops in the critical challenges of providing aerial reconnaissance for moving platoons. We and GTC look forward to working with the DoD and our customers to deliver advanced systems that meet their demanding and critical requirements."

World Surveillance Group Completes Blimp in a Box(TM) Demonstration for Members of the Department of Defense and Our Prime Contractor Partner?
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FL -- (MARKETWIRE) -- 12/19/12 -- World Surveillance Group Inc. (OTCQB: WSGI), a developer of lighter-than-air unmanned aerial vehicles ("UAVs") and related technologies, today announced that it has completed a demonstration of the Blimp in a Boxâ„¢ ("BiB") aerostat system for members of the Department of Defense ("DoD") and our defense partner. The demonstration was conducted in Florida and illustrated the BiB's capabilities for mission critical applications.
The BiB is designed to provide real-time day/night high definition footage for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance ("ISR"), detection of improvised explosive devices ("IEDs"), border security and other governmental and civilian uses. The BiB turn-key aerostat system is packaged in a box that is mounted to or towed from the back of a MAT-V, HUMVEE, pickup truck or other comparable vehicle. It can be rapidly deployed within minutes by a two-person crew and is activated by the push of a button. Once activated, the prepackaged envelope, which carries a day/night electro-optical/infrared camera with laser capable payload, automatically inflates to the applicable pressure and is secured to the vehicle by a data capable tether. The BiB system is released from the vehicle by an automated launch and recovery system to an operational low altitude appropriate for the application and can provide critical detection capabilities for several miles. Once deployed to the operational altitude, the vehicle can proceed on its mission over any terrain with the BiB system fully functional at altitude. Following completion of a mission, the BiB system is designed to quickly be recovered and be redeployed at the next mission destination.
WSGI President and CEO Glenn D. Estrella stated, "We are excited to have had the opportunity to demonstrate the Blimp in a Box aerostat system to potential customers and our defense partner. We believe the BiB's capabilities can assist our troops to meet critical challenges such as the detection of hidden IEDs and the provision of aerial ISR in various situations."

Yea I edited that today. As far as I know, or any shareholder for that matter, the TAO, L-3, and Elisra agreements are now defunct. So I updated it to reflect the current partnerships/agreements.
PS: not a request from the company. I have never had a request from the company for anything pertaining to this board.
Guess you didn't check the websites of the teaming partners.
