Every UASFeed story on DroneShield — across defense, counter-UAS, industry, commercial, policy, and tech, newest first.
DroneShield has signed an MOU to make DroneSentry interoperable with AIM Defence's Fractl laser, adding a directed-energy effector by partnership. It is a roadmap, not a contract: no dollar value, schedule or customer has been announced.
Read the story →DroneShield says DroneSentry-X Mk2 reached initial operational capability on U.S. Army Infantry Squad Vehicles about 80 days after a JIATF-401 award, with three more units planned. Contract value, first-batch size and performance specifications were not disclosed.
JIATF-401's vetted C-UAS Marketplace, built by startup Kaizen under a $15M contract, has processed $21M in purchases and added the UK and Romania as allied buyers while linking to the Foreign Military Sales Fast Lane.
DroneShield sharpened its RF detection and tracking software on July 6 just as the Pentagon handed AeroVironment a potential $500 million counter-drone contract, underscoring a red-hot C-UAS market racing to outpace cheaper, faster drone threats.
A DroneShield survey of 23 airport and critical-infrastructure operators finds 70% cite detection gaps and 60% lack the legal authority to mitigate drone threats — quantifying the two failures behind Gatwick-style shutdowns.
DroneShield says it has completed its first counter-UAS system built in Europe rather than Australia, using contract manufacturing and a primarily European supply chain to chase the EU's growing demand for sovereign C-UAS capability.
Handheld RF jammers like DroneShield's DroneGun Mk4 can force a drone into a controlled landing — a capability Ukraine has deployed by the thousands against Russian FPV attacks. In the United States, federal statute locks this technology behind a short list of federal agencies.
From a 2014 Virginia startup to an ASX200-listed company with 4,000+ systems deployed in 70 nations, DroneShield has built the counter-UAS industry’s most comprehensive product line—and is now betting that software subscriptions, not hardware sales, define its next decade.
