Sydney-Based Defence Tech Group Expands Counter-Drone Capability
DroneShield, a Sydney-based defence technology group, has announced the installation, testing, and acceptance of its vehicle-mounted counter-drone units on US Army infantry squad vehicles. This achievement marks the company’s initial operational capability, a key milestone in defence programmes, and may pave the way for follow-on orders and sustainment revenue. DroneShield’s catalogue approach has enabled rapid fielding and productisation, which could be a structural advantage in the counter-drone market. The company has also reported a growing committed revenue figure, covering contracted work not yet recognised. This development was first reported by Kalkine Media.
