Draganfly Inc., an industry-leading developer of drone solutions and systems today announced that it has executed a formal agreement with Global Ordnance, a U.S. Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) prime contractor, whereby Global Ordnance will serve as a U.S. defense partner for Draganfly’s line of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and related solutions.
Under the agreement, Draganfly and Global Ordnance will collaborate to accelerate U.S. defense adoption of Draganfly platforms, embed manufacturing and responsive supply chain support, and integrate mission-specific capabilities tailored to U.S. and allied defense applications.
This partnership marks a significant step toward delivering sovereign, mission-ready drone systems to U.S. defense and security markets, harnessing the strengths of both companies to meet evolving operational requirements.
Global Ordnance is headquartered in Sarasota and Tampa, Florida, with subsidiaries Global Military Products and Mountain Horse, LLC. The company supplies the U.S. and allied armed forces with defense and security solutions, logistics support, program management, and tactical hardware.
Draganfly is a long-standing UAS and autonomous systems developer with multiple defense and public safety customers. Its Commander 3XL and Flex FPV drones have been adopted by branches of the U.S. Department of Defense and other international defense organizations, positioning Draganfly as a key player in defense modernization and sovereign supply initiatives.
The partnership leverages Global Ordnance’s extensive defense contracting and logistics expertise with Draganfly’s advanced drone technology, creating synergies in U.S. market access, regulatory compliance, logistics integration, mission system tailoring, and supply chain resilience. Together, the companies aim to enhance the availability and operational readiness of mission-critical UAS technologies across defense and allied sectors.
“We are thrilled to join forces with Global Ordnance as a leading defense provider,” said Cameron Chell, CEO of Draganfly. “Their track record in U.S. defense, logistics, and mission support complements Draganfly’s capabilities in advanced autonomy systems and defense-grade UAS manufacturing.”
“Global Ordnance has long focused on delivering responsive, mission-proven solutions to defense customers,” said Marc Morales, CEO of Global Ordnance. “Partnering with Draganfly enables us to expand into next-generation unmanned systems.”
The global defense unmanned systems market is expanding rapidly, driven by increasing demand for ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) capabilities, autonomous operations, and secure communications. The U.S. Department of Defense continues to prioritize investment in small UAS, counter-UAS, and interoperability initiatives, underscoring the importance of trusted, NDAA-compliant suppliers such as Draganfly and Global Ordnance.
