Draganfly Flex FPV Drone Selected by Two Additional U.S. Department of War Units
Selections Reflect Continued Demand for Mission-Ready FPV Systems Across Multiple Defense Applications
Tampa, Florida — May 8, 2026 — Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO; CSE: DPRO; FSE: 3U8) (“Draganfly” or the “Company”), an award-winning, industry-leading developer of drone solutions and systems, today announced it has been selected by two separate U.S. Department of War units for Flex FPV drone systems.
This reflects continued demand for Draganfly’s FPV platforms across defense applications where rapidly deployable, adaptable, and mission-ready drone systems are increasingly being used to support training, operational readiness, and tactical awareness.
Draganfly’s Flex FPV systems are designed to provide operators with a responsive and agile drone platform that can be deployed across a range of demanding environments and operational scenarios. The additional orders further support the growing use of FPV systems as part of modern defense programs focused on speed, scalability, operator control, and rapid field deployment.
“FPV systems are becoming an increasingly important part of modern defense operations because they give operators practical, adaptable capability at the tactical edge,” said Cameron Chell, Chief Executive Officer of Draganfly. “Being selected by new operational units reflects continued confidence in Draganfly’s ability to deliver mission-ready drone systems that meet the evolving needs of defense customers.”
As defense organizations continue to integrate unmanned systems into training and operational planning, demand is increasing for drone platforms that are reliable, deployable, and capable of supporting rapidly changing requirements. Draganfly believes its long-standing operating history, established defense relationships, and production-ready drone systems position the Company to support this shift toward scalable unmanned capabilities.
These latest wins build on Draganfly’s growing defense momentum, including recent engagements supporting U.S. defense customers across not just tactical FPV drones but also ISR, logistics, and drone applications.
