DroneShield Secures $8.2M Contract Supporting Western Military Operations

December 30, 2025

DroneShield, a global leader in counter-drone technology, today announced it has secured an $8.2 million contract to supply counter-drone capabilities to a Western military end customer through an in-country reseller. 

The contract, placed through an in-country reseller, includes handheld counter-drone systems, associated accessories and spare kits, and ongoing software updates. The reseller is a wholly owned subsidiary of a global, publicly listed defense and technology organization responsible for distribution to the military customer within the region.

The award builds on a long-standing relationship between DroneShield and the reseller, with multiple programs supported over the past seven years. The continued engagement reflects DroneShield’s ability to deliver reliable, field-ready counter-drone solutions that can be deployed quickly and integrated into existing force structures.

Handheld counter-drone systems remain a critical capability for modern military operations, particularly for dismounted units operating in dynamic and contested environments. These solutions provide immediate situational awareness, identification, and protection against uncrewed aerial threats, supporting force survivability and operational freedom across a wide range of mission profiles.

The contract also highlights broader trends shaping military procurement, including the need for scalable counter-drone solutions, accelerated delivery timelines, and technologies that can adapt to rapidly evolving threat environments.

As DroneShield enters 2026, the company continues to see strong global momentum across defense and security markets, driven by increased focus on airspace protection, layered counter-drone architectures, and the growing role of unmanned systems in modern conflict.
