Electronic warefare specialist DroneShield Ltd (ASX:DRO) has received the initial order for its DroneGun Tactical product under the European Union Police Framework Agreement.
In May 2020, DroneShield’s DroneGun Tactical product was selected as the preferred solution by the European Union police forces and placed on an ongoing EU Framework Agreement. The process was run by the Belgium Police, with an EU-wide framework. Sales, training and local support will be managed by DroneShield’s Benelux region partner ForcePro BV.
“Due to COVID, there have been initial delays in mobilisation of orders under the agreement, which have now commenced despite continuous COVID constraints in Europe,” said Oleg Vornik, DroneShield’s CEO.
“While this initial purchase is small at approximately $100,000, it represents the first purchase under what we expect to be a multi-million dollar agreement supplying DroneGuns and associated counter-UAS products across dismounted, vehicle and fixed site range, to police forces across EU.”
