ParaZero Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: PRZO) has provided an update on its DefendAir platform, an active, non-explosive protection system designed to defend vehicles and other high-value assets against first-person-view (FPV) attack drones. The company announced that development is being accelerated through engagements with Tier-1 defense partners as it works to advance the platform toward field-ready deployment.
The DefendAir system is an autonomous, sensor-driven solution intended to neutralize high-speed aerial threats while providing a lightweight, retrofit option for existing armored platforms. Unlike explosive countermeasures, DefendAir aims to avoid collateral risks, making it suitable for both battlefield and urban environments. Management believes the technology addresses a growing need for active protection systems as defense organizations seek more effective ways to counter the increasing use of low-cost, high-lethality FPV drones.
ParaZero, founded in 2014 by aviation professionals and drone industry veterans, is a recognized leader in advanced drone technologies supporting commercial, industrial, and governmental operations worldwide. The company’s product portfolio includes SafeAir, an autonomous parachute recovery system; DefendAir, the counter-UAS net-launching platform; and DropAir, a precision aerial delivery system. ParaZero’s mission is to redefine the boundaries of aerial operations with intelligent, mission-ready systems that enhance safety, scalability, and security.
The announcement comes amid a global surge in the use of FPV drones in conflict zones, where they have proven highly effective against armored vehicles. Traditional countermeasures often involve explosive projectiles that can cause collateral damage, highlighting the need for alternatives like DefendAir. ParaZero’s focus on a non-explosive, retrofit solution could offer a significant tactical advantage.
