Fortem Technologies

The US Army has signed an agreement with the UK establishing ground rules for sharing intelligence on drone and counter-drone operations. Army Secretary Dan Driscoll plans to expand this partnership to a couple of other countries, aiming to build and buy similar tools as its partners.

The US Department of Homeland Security has awarded a multimillion-dollar contract to Fortem Technologies to protect the 2026 FIFA World Cup from hostile drones. Under the agreement, Fortem will deploy its counter-drone systems at 11 venues during the tournament.
