Ondas has secured an approximate USD 8.2 million purchase order from a European security agency to deploy multiple Iron Drone Raider™ counter-uncrewed aerial systems (C-UAS) units for the protection of one of a large international airport in Europe.
Ondas’ Airobotics subsidiary will serve as the prime contractor on the project, overseeing system integration, installation and operational readiness of the Iron Drone Raider systems across the airport perimeter.
Recent incidents across Europe, where drone intrusions forced flight delays and cancellations, have expedited the need for C-UAS technology.
The Iron Drone Raider provides interception and kinetic engagement capabilities. Using an AI-enabled detection-to-intercept workflow, the Raider launches an interceptor drone that is designed to safely capture hostile UAS using a reusable net payload without collateral damage or interference with civilian communications.
