Draganfly to supply Flex FPV drones to U.S. Army

Mr. Cameron Chell reports DRAGANFLY SELECTED BY U.S. ARMY TO SUPPLY FLEX FPV DRONE SYSTEMS Draganfly Inc. has been selected by the U.S. Army to provide Flex FPV (first-person view) drone systems. Under the initial order, Draganfly will deliver Flex FPV drones, designed for high-performance operations as well as help establish on-site manufacturing of the Flex FPV within overseas U.S. Forces facilities to accelerate deployment and reduce supply chain timelines. The company will also provide both flight and manufacturing training to enable army personnel to sustain operations and will manage logistics to ensure a secure, NDAA-compliant (National Defense Authorization Act) supply chain practice. This marks a significant milestone in evolving critical drone capabilities closer to the theatre of operations, reducing logistical vulnerabilities and enhancing force readiness. Recent exercises have underscored the importance of FPV technology for U.S. forces. During the Swift Response 2025 exercise in Lithuania, paratroopers operated and detonated in-house-built FPV drones against dismounted and vehicle-sized autonomous targets. The unit has also established its own drone lab for design, training and rapid innovation. In August, 2025, the U.S. Army executed the first-ever air-to-air kill with an armed FPV drone, advancing the evolution of drone warfare. Draganfly's embedded manufacturing program and the Flex FPV drone systems are in direct support of this strategic shift to decentralized and agile innovation. "We are honoured to support the U.S. Army as it moves critical drone capabilities closer to front lines," said Cameron Chell, president and chief executive officer of Draganfly. "By combining advanced Flex FPV drone systems, embedded manufacturing, training and secure logistics, we are helping reinforce operational agility and sustainment for forward-deployed forces. This helps ensure personnel have the tools, training and capabilities required when and where they need them most." About Draganfly Inc. Draganfly is a pioneer in drone solutions and robotics. With over 25 years of innovation, Draganfly has been at the forefront of drone technology, providing solutions for public safety, agriculture, industrial inspections, security, mapping and surveying.
