ParaZero and ThirdEye Systems Sign MOU to Develop a 360° Detect-To-Defeat Counter-UAS Solution for Armored Vehicles and Critical Assets

ParaZero and ThirdEye plan to integrate detection and interception technologies into a full-cycle Counter-UAS system focused initially on armored vehicles.

Rhea-AI Summary

ParaZero Technologies (PRZO) signed a non-binding MOU with ThirdEye Systems to explore a unified Counter-UAS solution integrating detection, analysis, and physical interception capabilities.

The framework aims to combine ThirdEye’s advanced electro-optical detection and sensor technologies with ParaZero’s DefendAir net-based physical interception system, subject to definitive agreements. The cooperation targets development of a 360° detect-to-defeat architecture covering the full Counter-UAS engagement cycle, from drone detection and identification through engagement management to controlled interception and neutralization. Initial efforts will focus on protecting armored vehicles from evolving drone threats, with potential extensions to critical infrastructure, strategic sites, and other sensitive assets.

News Explained

The MOU remains a non-binding framework for exploring an integrated Counter-UAS product, while ParaZero says the underlying detect-to-defeat architecture is already field-tested; the cooperation remains subject to definitive documentation.

3 terms

memorandum of understanding regulatory

"non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with ThirdEye Systems Ltd."

A memorandum of understanding (MOU) is a formal agreement between two or more parties that outlines their shared intentions and plans to work together. It acts like a handshake in writing, clarifying each side’s roles and expectations before any official contract is signed. For investors, an MOU signals that parties are serious about collaboration, which can influence future business opportunities and potential growth.

counter-uas technical

"a complete Counter-UAS solution combining ThirdEye’s advanced detection"

Counter-UAS (counter-unmanned aircraft systems) are tools and tactics used to detect, track, and disable or divert drones that pose a threat to people, property, or operations. Think of them as a combination of a security camera, alarm system, and net that can find an unwanted flying device and stop it before it causes harm. Investors care because demand, regulation, and deployment of these systems affect revenue, contract opportunities, legal risk, and the valuation of companies that build or use them.

electro-optical technical

"ThirdEye brings advanced electro-optical detection and AI-driven recognition capabilities"

Electro-optical describes devices and technologies that convert between electrical signals and light or that use light controlled by electricity—think of them as translators between electricity and beams of light. Investors care because these technologies power items like high-speed communications, imaging systems, sensors and targeting equipment; improvements can open new markets, raise product value and affect revenue and competitive position much like a faster engine can change a car maker’s sales.

The cooperation brings together the companies’ detection, threat analysis and physical interception capabilities into a unified and complete Counter-UAS architecture

KFAR SABA, Israel, Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ParaZero Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq: PRZO) (“ParaZero” or the “Company”), an aerospace defense company pioneering smart, autonomous solutions for the global manned and unmanned aerial systems (UAS) industry, today announced the signing of a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with ThirdEye Systems Ltd. (TASE: THES), an Israeli defense technology company specializing in advanced electro-optical recognition and Counter-UAS systems.

The non-binding MOU establishes a framework for the companies to explore the development, integration, and commercialization of a complete Counter-UAS solution combining ThirdEye’s advanced detection and sensor capabilities with ParaZero’s DefendAir net-based physical interception technology , which shall be subject to the execution of definitive documentation..

The cooperation includes the creation of a complete integrated detect-to-defeat architecture covering the full Counter-UAS engagement cycle — from detection and identification of an approaching aerial threat, through threat analysis and engagement management, to controlled physical interception and neutralization. the companies will initially focus on protecting armored vehicle platforms from the rapidly evolving drone threats and may also explore applications for critical infrastructure, strategic sites, and other sensitive assets requiring an integrated detection-to-interception capability.

The already field-tested architecture is intended to connect detection, threat analysis, engagement management, safety, and controlled physical interception within a unified Counter-UAS system. This approach reflects the growing operational requirement for solutions capable of supporting the full engagement cycle, from identifying an approaching drone to physically stopping it.

“Protecting armored vehicles and strategic assets from evolving drone threats requires detection, decision-making, and interception capabilities to operate as one integrated system,” said Ariel Alon, CEO of ParaZero Technologies. “ThirdEye brings advanced electro-optical detection and AI-driven recognition capabilities, while ParaZero provides the physical interception layer through DefendAir. This MOU creates a framework to combine theses technologies into a practical and complete Counter-UAS architecture.”

Lior Segal, CEO of ThirdEye Systems, added:

“Our collaboration with ParaZero represents a significant force multiplier for both our company and our operational customers. The ability to provide field forces with a comprehensive protection solution, from the initial detection of a threat through to its actual interception, is critical, particularly for armoured vehicles and sensitive assets. We are confident that the combined system will deliver significant value to defence markets in Israel and around the world.”
