1941 ET [Dow Jones]--AeroVironment has a competitive edge as the conflict in Iran boosts demand for its drones and other defense systems, Chief Executive Wahid Nawabi says during a call with analysts. Nawabi says AeroVironment is one of the only companies in the space that can already produce those kinds of products in volume. "Most players are talking about production capacity two years to three years from now," he says, adding that manufacturing sites will take even longer to build. "We're doing that today across several of our product lines," he says. (kelly.cloonan@wsj.com)
