ParaZero Technologies Ltd. said on Tuesday it received its first order for its DefendAir counter-drone system from a U.S. federal security entity. The contract covers DefendAir net launchers, Net Pods and on-site operator training to be delivered by ParaZero personnel.
The order marks the first deployment of ParaZero’s counter-drone technology for a U.S. government customer. Financial terms were not disclosed. ParaZero, which trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker PRZO, did not specify delivery timelines or the size of the order.
DefendAir uses net-based interception to physically neutralize drones without explosives or conventional gunfire. The system is designed for multiple operational environments, including individual operators, mobile forces, vehicles and strategic sites. It features a manually operated configuration that allows security personnel to intercept hostile drones when other defensive layers fail.
Ariel Alon, CEO of ParaZero Technologies, said counter-UAS capability depends on trained operators who can deploy the system confidently in critical moments. "Counter-UAS capability is not created when a box arrives. It is created when trained operators can deploy the system confidently and act when seconds matter," Alon said.
ParaZero was founded in 2014 and is based in Kfar Saba, Israel. The company develops solutions for manned and unmanned aerial systems.
