DroneShield announced it has received an initial order from a high-profile US critical infrastructure federal agency. The order is comprised of a portable drone defeat system.
Oleg Vornik, DroneShield’s CEO, said, the “US government, through its various agencies, is the single largest counter-drone customer globally. Smaller orders such as this, are an important initial step-stone commitment, leading to larger acquisition programs following the evaluation process. We have now successfully been through this sequence with other Government customers, both in the US and globally. We are pleased to continue expanding the breadth of our US government customer base, now across several high profile federal and state agencies. This is our first sale to a US critical infrastructure agency. Critical infrastructure faces a number of drone threats, across terrorism, illicit surveillance of the facilities, and others – with an inherent difficulty of discerning between different levels of threats. This initial deployment will serve as a reference case for expected follow-on sales with this and related customers.”
