Aonic announced on 21 January 2025 that it had obtained an Unmanned Aerial Work Certificate from Malaysia’s Civil Aviation Authority. The company’s release described the certification in the context of commercial agricultural drone operations, including spraying services.

Aonic presented the milestone alongside its work in operator training, equipment financing and support for plantations and farmers. The announcement emphasized procedures and operating standards as the agricultural drone sector expanded. It therefore provides a different view of industry development from a new-aircraft launch: deployment depends on the organization operating a fleet as well as on the hardware itself. The report describes the certification announcement at that time and does not substitute for checking current operating requirements.
