Global Digital Solutions, Inc. (GDSI) Announces New Details - And Photo - Regarding Its Planned Shipment of High-End, Mobile Command and Control Vehicle to Sadara, a $20 Billion Petrochemical Joint Venture Between Dow Chemical and Saudi Aramco, the Global Petroleum and Chemicals Enterprise Owned by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

PALM BEACH, Fla., July 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Global Digital Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB: GDSI), a company that is positioning itself as a leader in providing cyber arms manufacturing and complementary security and technology solutions, today announced new details regarding the Company's planned shipment of a high-end, mobile Command and Control vehicle from recently acquired North American Custom Specialty Vehicles, LLC (NACSV).  The sophisticated, custom-manufactured vehicle (see photo) is expected to be shipped soon to Sadara, a $20 billion petrochemical joint venture between Dow Chemical and Saudi Aramco, the global petroleum and chemicals enterprise owned by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. 

NACSV, a leading builder of mobile command/communications and specialty vehicles for emergency management, first responders, national security and law enforcement operations, also recently delivered a $600,000 mobile command center to a local sheriff's office in Florida.

GDSI announced the acquisition of NACSV on June 18, 2014.  NACSV's Mobile Command and Control vehicles are typically equipped with a suite of sophisticated capabilities, including night-vision, live surveillance, back-to-base video, and secure, encrypted communications data links to support command and control decision-making.  For more detailed information about NACSV's Command and Control and other advanced vehicles, click here or visit http://www.gdsi.co/nacs_vehicles.html.

"These NACSV orders reflect much more than the world-class quality of NACSV vehicles," said Richard J. Sullivan, GDSI's President and CEO.  "They also underscore both the strong demand for NACSV leading-edge vehicles and NACSV's impressive network of satisfied customers.  NACSV supplied a similar vehicle to Dow Chemical for a facility in Houston, Texas.  The NACSV team was able to build on this close relationship to secure the Sadara contract.  We see enormous growth potential for NACSV's sophisticated, custom-manufactured vehicles in the U.S. market and in the fast-growing global arena."

By way of background, NACSV generated revenue in 2013 of $6.2 million and EBITDA (Income Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) of $1.06 million.
