Lots Of Latitude For The DEA


Latitude Technologies has been selected to provide the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Air Wing Division fleet of aircraft with a suite of SATCOM hardware products and related services.

The Air Wing Division maintains a fleet of rotorcraft, light fixed wing aircraft as well as larger, pressurized fixed wing aircraft on which the Latitude SkyNode® equipment will be installed. The DEA is a division of the U.S. Department of Justice. It was created in 1973 in order to establish a single unified command to combat "an all-out global war on the drug menace." Today, it continues that mission as the agency responsible for enforcing the controlled substances laws and regulations of the United States.
