Volatus Aerospace (TAKOF) agreed to acquire all shares of Lithuania-based AISPECO for base consideration of US$10.5 million, adding airborne sensors and software. The consideration comprises US$3.0 million in cash and US$7.5 million in common shares, subject to adjustments. Up to US$2.5 million more is payable in cash or equity for milestones over three years. Closing requires conditional Toronto Stock Exchange approval.
AISPECO reported approximately C$5.72 million in fiscal 2025 revenue, more than double fiscal 2024. Volatus expects standalone fiscal 2027 revenue of approximately C$10 million and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 8%–12%, before synergies. Management estimates C$1.4–C$2.6 million in annual cost and direct synergies by year two, plus C$7–C$12 million in incremental revenue and addressable-market opportunity. The acquisition would add engineering and manufacturing operations in Vilnius.
Volatus Aerospace (TAKOF) completed its initial drone fleet delivery to a NATO partner under an approximately C$4.5 million contract tranche. The intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) training system contract, announced December 15, 2025, has a potential aggregate value of up to C$9 million.
The customer has begun exercising its second-tranche option, and Volatus has received additional orders. The unexercised balance remains available at the customer’s option through the end of 2027. The completed initial shipment follows previously disclosed supply-chain disruptions. The program provides training aircraft, integration, instructor familiarization and lifecycle support for defence personnel learning basic drone operations and ISR skills.
Volatus Aerospace (TAKOF) officially opened its 53,000-square-foot manufacturing and systems integration facility in Mirabel, Québec, expanding Canadian production capacity. The facility has operated since earlier this year, and production of drone docking stations is underway. It also supports the integration and production of Volatus’ V-Series aircraft and other autonomous systems.
The company said the facility is designed to help it respond to requirements across defence, public safety, industrial and commercial markets in Canada and allied countries.
Volatus Aerospace (TAKOF) reported a key milestone with initial flight tests of its proprietary V-Cortex™ AI Flight Controller and Autonomy Operating System, which successfully completed GNSS-denied navigation using only default onboard sensors, without GPS, external sensors or high-performance computing.
This capability is aimed at autonomous operations where GPS is unavailable, degraded or disrupted, such as contested environments, dense urban areas and remote Arctic regions. V-Cortex is described as a platform-agnostic, multi-domain autonomy layer with an open, modular architecture that can be integrated across multiple uncrewed aircraft systems, supporting faster integration, scalability and sovereign control of flight technologies. Development is supported by Canada’s NRC IRAP Defence Industry Assist initiative, with additional flight testing and demonstrations planned through 2026.
Volatus Aerospace (TAKOF) has received a five-year Canadian defence contract to supply Low-Cost Tactical ISR uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) to the Canadian Armed Forces.
The initial award covers 100 tactical ISR systems, with a Government of Canada procurement framework that allows, at Canada’s sole discretion, options for up to an additional 4,900 systems, creating a pathway for as many as 5,000 systems in total. The framework sets a maximum price of C$5,000 per system and a maximum procurement envelope of C$25 million, while Volatus’ specific contracted pricing remains confidential.
The contract provides an end-to-end solution including aircraft, payloads, ground control stations, data links, training, sustainment, spares, documentation, and software and firmware support. Delivery of the initial tranche is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2026. Option systems are not committed purchases, backlog or revenue and may be exercised only at Canada’s discretion.
Volatus Aerospace (TAKOF) has qualified across all five streams of Canada’s Defence Drone Initiative (DDI) Marketplace, enabling it to compete for a wider range of future defence requirements.
