Rugged Radios is a leading provider of high-performance communication solutions, specializing in two-way radios, intercoms, headsets, and accessories for challenging, high-noise environments. Founded and led by Greg Cottrell over 30 years ago, the company originated in a small garage in Arroyo Grande, California, driven by the founder's passion for motorsports and the critical need for reliable communication in off-road racing.

Rugged Radios extends its expertise in clear, durable, and reliable communication to the skies through its dedicated aviation product line, branded as Rugged Air.

The Vision: The Rugged Air line was created to provide students, instructors, charter services, and general aviation pilots with clear, reliable communications at an affordable price. Recognizing that quality pilot equipment can be a significant investment, Rugged Air focuses on delivering high-performance gear built to withstand the rigors of the cockpit without the premium price tag.
