$ONDS even Adam for Ondas Capital in the mix at EUROSATORY now. starting to look like one big reunion over there.
definitely curious to see where this goes 👊🏻

Collaboration (Operation Jailbreak)
🇺🇸 During the exercise Operation Jailbreak, AZAK teamed up with six industry partners to showcase its UGV's tactical capabilities.
Partners: Havoc AI, Allen Control Systems, Leonardo DRS, Picogrid & Anduril Industries.
"The absolute highlight of the event was proving just how fast the defense tech ecosystem can move when we work together. In just a matter of days, six companies came together to build, integrate, and deploy a rapid tactical system that Dr. Miller dubbed "The Hunter-Killer."
▶️AZAK: Provided both Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) platforms.
▶️HavocAI: Provided the autonomous driving software for both vehicles.
▶️Allen Control Systems (𝐀𝐂𝐒): Deployed the Bullfrog system onto the second vehicle ("The Killer").
▶️Leonardo DRS: Integrated the ACHR radar system onto the first vehicle ("The Hunter").
▶️Picogrid: Unified and tied the systems together.
▶️Anduril Industries: Tasked the entire ecosystem via Lattice.

$onds The real question for the World Cup is if Kalshi has a prediction bet on if there will be a drone incursion takedown due in the event. If so which system will take out
How would you stack the odds?

Thinking a lot about the current NDAA debate. It’s frustrating to watch lawmakers get bogged down in the political theater of "integration" while the military is clearly starving for battle-tested tech that can actually be fielded today.
This is why $ONDS is in a different league. They aren't just selling drones or sensors; they’re building the compliance infrastructure to actually move that tech between allies. They’ve turned the ITAR into a core competency and strategic advantage for the best technology. In this market, if you can bridge the gap between foreign innovation and U.S. compliance requirements, you’ve basically won. They’re solving the bottleneck that everyone else is just complaining about.

Exclusive: Over the past six months, images from commercial satellites operated by Colorado-based Vantor have improved the speed and precision of Ukraine’s drone attacks https://t.co/KiaIdEb8jb
It could be a deliberate attack OR it could just be have navigation failure lost its target lock and drifted into Romanian territorial waters, which represents a qualitatively different kind of security event than the aerial drone incidents that have occasionally scattered debris over Romanian territory in previous years
Regardless comms matter! Can’t let drones wander rogue

⚡🇸🇦🇦🇪🇶🇦 A new defense powerhouse is emerging in the Gulf.
For decades, Gulf states spent billions importing Western weapons. Now, they are investing heavily in building their own defense industries, aiming to reduce dependence on foreign suppliers and become major arms producers themselves.
From precision guided munitions to advanced military technology, the region is rapidly transforming from one of the world's biggest weapons buyers into a serious defense manufacturing hub.
The global arms industry may soon have a powerful new competitor.

$pltr best @ssankar quote ever - I need to read Mobilize
"I told myself, like, if the world came to this, I was going to be the Righteous Among the Nations. I was going to be Schindler. And I grew up with this sort of protective sensibility around Jews. So now I’m kind of double-fucked, right? I’m Indian, and I also study Torah every week.”

$onds indulge me for a moment as we envision combat proven CBRN decontamination…
🚁 The Eye in the Sky (Optimus): An autonomous drone wakes up, launches itself from its weatherproof "Drone-in-a-Box," and flies over the site. Using advanced sensors, it creates a 3D heatmap of exactly where the nasty stuff is. No humans involved.
🚜 The Muscle (Roboteam): The drone beams that data down to a rugged Roboteam UGV waiting on the ground. This thing is built like a tank and doesn't care about corrosive chemicals. It rolls out to the hottest spots, carrying the heavy decontamination fluids that humans hate lugging around.
🦾 The Steady Hand (Apeiro Motion): This is the game-changer. Mounted on the Roboteam UGV is an Apeiro Motion robotic arm. Using its advanced 6-DOF (Degrees of Freedom) stabilization, it takes the data from the aerial scout and applies the cleaning foam with the precision of a master surgeon. No wild spraying, no missed spots—just perfect, stabilized execution even while the robot is traversing rubble.
The Result?
A synchronized, multi-domain robot ballet that maps, washes, and clears the zone faster and more precisely than a human platoon.
The Army gets its equipment clean. The soldiers stay out of the rubber suits. And Ondas proves itself as System of Systems - the best way to handle a dirty job is to automate it completely.
