Seat negotiates with Aggity to manufacture drones at its Martorell plant
The two companies have met with the Ministry of Industry to raise the possibility of launching a specific military modernization program for the project.
Seat, owned by Volkswagen, is exploring opportunities to diversify its business, including entering the defense industry. The company has been approached by the Spanish government and the Catalan government to use its factories to meet military needs. Seat is considering a proposal from Catalan technology group Aggity to produce drones in its Martorell plant, with a potential order of 500 drones from the Ministry for Ecological Transition.
The project, which would have both civilian and military applications, is seeking public funding through a special modernization program for defense.
