DroneShield, a leader in counter-unmanned aerial system (C-UAS) technologies, has announced a significant repeat order valued at $4.3 million from a longstanding U.S. Government customer. The order encompasses several of DroneShield’s handheld anti-drone systems, with the company slated to fulfill the delivery within the next 15 days from its existing inventory.
This order marks the largest engagement between DroneShield and this U.S. Government entity, following several smaller transactions over the years. The company anticipates this to be the first of many substantial orders, with expectations of future purchases to be disclosed as details emerge.
Tom Branstetter, DroneShield’s Director of Business Development, reflected on the evolving landscape of unmanned systems in global conflicts, underscoring the critical need for advanced solutions to maintain operational superiority. “This initial order not only demonstrates our commitment to solving complex security challenges but also solidifies DroneShield’s pivotal role in the counter-UAS sector,” said Branstetter.
DroneShield’s CEO in the U.S., Matt McCrann, highlighted the rigorous evaluation process their products have undergone by several U.S. Government agencies. He expressed gratitude for the trust placed in DroneShield and emphasized the importance of rapid delivery capabilities to meet urgent operational needs amidst escalating drone threats.
This contract is a testament to DroneShield’s leading-edge technology and its capability to meet the immediate and evolving needs of the U.S. Government in the counter-drone domain.
