Ondas Gets $3.4 M Iron Drone Raider Counter-UAS System Order from Europe

• Ondas Holdings Inc.  a provider of private industrial wireless networks and commercial drone and automated data solutions, has announced it has secured a $3.4 million order for its Iron Drone Raider Counter-UAS system from renowned European defense contractor for their governmental end client.

This marks the initial deployment of the Iron Drone Raider in Europe and represents a major milestone in the global expansion of Ondas’ counter-UAS business.

“Ongoing geopolitical instability and the rapid proliferation of hostile drone technologies have intensified the urgency for effective counter-UAS capabilities across NATO-aligned and partner nations,” said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas. “This order reflects the rising global demand for autonomous aerial defense systems that can be rapidly deployed, scaled, and adapted to modern threat environments. Iron Drone Raider delivers a differentiated solution for military and homeland security operators charged with safeguarding critical infrastructure and civilian populations from increasingly sophisticated aerial threats.”

The capability to autonomously detect, intercept, and neutralize hostile drones—including those operating without GPS, RF signals, or remote control has become imperative for defense and security organizations throughout the world. Built for dense urban and contested environments, the Raider’s drone-on-drone, net-based capture system offers a low-collateral, reusable approach to persistent airspace security. Each interceptor drone autonomously engages targets using AI-driven onboard processing and returns to base for immediate redeployment, enabling 24/7 protection in dynamic threat scenarios.

The European defense contractor selected Iron Drone Raider following an evaluation of performance, safety, and integration flexibility. The system will be embedded into operational security frameworks and serve as a core component in the government customer’s evolving counter-drone architecture. Operating within Ondas’ proprietary Continuum of Autonomy, the Raider system combines real-time sensor fusion, autonomous decision-making, and target engagement algorithms.

This order builds on a series of recent international milestones for Ondas Autonomous Systems, including operational deployments of the Raider in the Middle East and expanded adoption of the Optimus platform for autonomous intelligence, security and reconnaissance (ISR). The Company is actively scaling production, integration, and field support capabilities to address growing global demand across defense, homeland security, and national infrastructure sectors.

Ondas’ expansion into Europe further solidifies its role as a defense technology prime contractor delivering scalable autonomous systems for layered airspace protection. The Company will continue executing on its roadmap through mission-ready deployments, strategic regional partnerships, and continued innovation across ISR and interception platforms—supporting critical defense needs across NATO, the EU, and allied forces amid an increasingly contested airspace landscape.
