Orbital Corporation Limited ('Orbital' or 'the Company') has announced the appointment of Mr. Stephen Pearce as its new Chief Executive Officer. This key leadership appointment completes the management strengthening the Company has embarked upon as it transitions from engine development to the commercial exploitation of its propulsion and flight management technology for tier 1 defence UAV customers. Mr. Pearce brings extensive experience in the defence sector, with expertise in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and deep knowledge of the global defence UAV market.

With more than one million operational flight hours across its engine platforms, Orbital's propulsion and flight management systems are now recognised as being at the forefront of industry performance and reliability.
