Powerus (PUSA) and Swarmer (Nasdaq: SWMR) signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding to explore integrating Swarmer’s vendor-agnostic swarming and coordination software with Powerus air and maritime autonomous systems.
The exploratory collaboration will assess interoperability for defense, border security, counter-drone, and critical-infrastructure missions and creates no production, procurement, or financial obligations. Powerus also reiterates its proposed, not-yet-closed merger with Aureus Greenway Holdings (Nasdaq: PUSA).
Dominari Holdings (Nasdaq: DOMH) detailed its role in financing key participants in the growing American drone sector, including Unusual Machines (NYSE American: UMAC), Aureus Greenway (Nasdaq: PUSA), and JFB Construction Holdings (Nasdaq: JFB).
Dominari supported UMAC’s IPO and follow-on offerings, helping it reach a reported $1.5B valuation, and highlighted portfolio involvement in the U.S. Department of Defense’s Drone Dominance Program, which targets procurement of over 200,000 drones by 2027. Across three portfolio companies, Dominari cites total capital raised of $349,404,002.
Powerus, doing business as Autonomous Power Corporation, was selected to compete in the Phase II qualifier of the Pentagon’s $1 billion Drone Dominance Program with its MatrixFold multi-purpose attack drone. The program aims to procure tens of thousands of low-cost, one-way attack drones.
This follows a merger agreement with Aureus Greenway Holdings (Nasdaq: PUSA), expected to make Powerus publicly traded upon completion. The MatrixFold platform is U.S.-made, modular, Blue UAS-compatible and NDAA-compliant, with the Phase II qualifier window estimated for June 2026.
