Australian company DroneShield has secured a $49.6 million contract through an in-region European reseller for a European military end-customer. The agreement covers handheld counter-drone systems, associated accessories and software updates.

 

The company said a significant portion of the required hardware is already held as on-the-shelf stock, with all deliveries expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2026. DroneShield also expects to receive full cash payment by Q1 2026, with no additional material conditions required to be met.

 

 

Over the past three years, DroneShield has received 15 contracts from the same reseller with a combined value exceeding $86.5 million. The company confirmed that there are no obligations for further contracts from either the reseller or the European military end-customer.
