Piasecki Aircraft Company (PiAC), was founded by vertical flight pioneer Frank Piasecki to continue pursuing the development of compound helicopters and other advanced rotorcraft. PiAC's history of innovation and new ideas lead to their selection as prime contractor for several Army Future Combat Systems UAV systems.

Continuing in the history of innovation, PiAC flew the world's first autonomous autogyro in the summer of 2006.
