ParaZero Achieves Extraordinary Results in Intercepting High Speed Hostile Drones at High Speed of 70 mph
Kfar Saba, Israel, Feb. 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ParaZero Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq: PRZO) (the “company” or “ParaZero”), an aerospace defense company pioneering smart, autonomous solutions for the global manned and unmanned aerial systems (UAS) industry, proudly announces outstanding results from an internal live testing of its DefendAir™ system.
In the trial, DefendAir successfully intercepted a fast-moving drone traveling at 70 mph using its patented net-launching technology. This marks the first-ever successful net-based interception of a drone at such high speed by ParaZero.
The system demonstrated its capability for real-time, on-the-move protection against rapidly approaching aerial threats. The test simulated a realistic combat scenario of a hostile drone closing in at high speed on ground forces.
The achievement elevates DefendAir as a solution, capable of countering tactical platforms such as FPV attack drones at very high speeds and other fast, lethal unmanned systems.
“We are thrilled to demonstrate DefendAir’s strong and reliable performance in demanding operational conditions,” said Ariel Alon, CEO of ParaZero. “We believe that intercepting a 70 mph threat represent a significant advancement for force protection in modern battlefields.”
DefendAir offers a non-explosive, low-collateral net-based interception and is available in multiple configurations: handheld, stationary point protection and drone-mounted – delivering layered defense for troops, convoys, and high-value assets.
