Ondas completes initial counter drone pilot programs in Europe, Asia

Ondas (ONDS) Holdings announced the completion of pilot programs conducted with governmental homeland security agencies in Europe and Asia. These programs, first announced during the second quarter of Q2 2025, involved extensive testing of the Iron Drone Raider system in a range of operational scenarios, including GPS-denied environments, interception of various maneuvering aerial targets, and the use of net-and-parachute capture technology to minimize collateral damage. One of the programs also included integration with third-party command-and-control and drone detection systems. Both pilot programs concluded with the Iron Drone Raider receiving excellent performance evaluations, validating its capabilities in real-world operations and setting the stage for scaled, long-term deployments. During the programs, the Iron Drone Raider system was demonstrated in more than five distinct operational scenarios, including engagements with fast and unpredictable targets, autonomous interception in signal-contested conditions, and full-cycle recovery and redeployment from its base station. In each of these diverse scenarios, the Raider system delivered top performance and achieved mission success with excellence.
