Draganfly Supplies Surveillance Drones To Canadian Armed Forces
A Saskatoon-based drone technology company, Draganfly, has been awarded a contract to supply surveillance drones to the Canadian Armed Forces under the federal Defence Drone Initiative. The contract is part of a broader defence plan announced by the Canadian government, which aims to increase defence spending and strengthen the country’s ability to design, manufacture, and maintain military equipment at home. Draganfly’s CEO, Cameron Chell, stated that the company’s drones have been tested in Ukrainian battlefields and are designed for low-cost surveillance missions. The deal was reported by Canada’s National Observer.
