ZenaTech Inc.

ZenaTech shares that its subsidiary, @ZenadroneInc, developed the IQ Aqua, an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) prototype designed for various underwater applications across the defense and commercial sectors. This represents the company’s entry into underwater robotics, extending ZenaDrone’s IQ autonomous product family, which currently spans air, land, and water surface drone operations, to include underwater operations. The IQ Aqua prototype has demonstrated baseline autonomous navigation and underwater mobility in controlled environments. The company is now manufacturing several additional prototypes for outdoor underwater field testing in the U.S. and other international locations, with testing set to begin in the coming months. “ZenaDrone IQ Aqua is positioned to address one of the most urgent gaps in modern maritime defense: autonomous mine detection. Mines represent an asymmetric threat that is inexpensive to deploy and extraordinarily expensive to counter using traditional manned methods, and we are building a technology specifically designed to detect them,” said @ShaunPassleyPhD, ZenaTech CEO. “We intend to change that calculus, enabling defense forces to detect and respond to underwater mine threats without putting divers or manned vessels at risk. Combined with our IQ Glider launch station and interceptor drones, the IQ Aqua will give defense forces an integrated above- and below-surface maritime defense architecture, while also addressing significant commercial demand for autonomous underwater inspection and surveillance across the offshore energy and port security sectors.” Read the full story: zenatech.com/zenatechs-zena… $ZENA $49Q #ZenaTech #ZenaDrone #IQSeries #IQAqua #ZenaAI #UnderwaterDrones #AUV #MaritimeDefense #DefenseTechnology #AIDrones #AutonomousSystems #ISR #OffshoreEnergy #PortSecurity #DefenseInnovation

ZenaTech has commenced development of an integrated counter-UAS system that includes a software platform and architecture for its counter-UAS hardware and defense systems. The platform is designed solely to link the ZenaDrone Interceptor P-1, a single-use, low-cost, autonomous interceptor drone, and the ZenaDrone 2000, with an AI software system to be developed by its U.S. Zena AI division. The goal is to provide a complete, AI-driven counter-UAS ecosystem for identifying and classifying airborne threats and autonomously controlling fleets to neutralize them. "Our Interceptor drones can be thought of as the hardware answer to the drone attack problem, while the Zena AI platform is the software intelligence intended to transform it into a defense system. Together, they are designed to give a single operator the ability to direct an AI-commanded fleet of low-cost interceptors against a swarm attack, autonomously and at machine speed, at a cost per engagement that is finally on the correct side of the cost equation,” said @ShaunPassleyPhD, ZenaTech CEO. “With the initiation of this integrated development program, we are building a complete and cost-effective counter-UAS architecture we believe will meet the growing needs of US defense and allied forces."

ZenaTech announces that its previously disclosed Interceptor P-1 single-use, one-way autonomous drone, developed by its @ZenadroneInc subsidiary, is planned to have a target selling price below $5,000 USD. Earlier, the company said it had begun developing a prototype of a small, one-way interceptor drone designed to physically intercept hostile drones in flight. The Interceptor P-1 is being built as an autonomous, expendable vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) drone that can be integrated into the company’s counter-UAS (Unmanned Aircraft System) defense system, offering cheaper costs than traditional air munitions. “We are engineering the Interceptor P-1 with a clear goal: maximize performance while minimizing cost. The result is a smarter, more accessible solution for modern aerial operations targeted to sell for less than $5,000 per drone for the new world of asymmetric warfare,” said @ShaunPassleyPhD, ZenaTech CEO. “The Interceptor P-1 is a critical piece of ZenaDrone’s integrated defense ecosystem, designed to work seamlessly with our interceptor platforms and marine launch station, and enabling a coordinated drone-on-drone solution that delivers a unified, cost-effective aerial defense capability for U.S. Defense and allied forces.” Read the full story: zenatech.com/zenatechs-zena… $ZENA $49Q #ZenaTech #ZenaDrone #CounterUAS #DefenseTechnology #DroneDefense #AIDefense #SecurityTech #MilitaryTechnology #AutonomousSystem #NationalSecurity #DefenseInnovation

ZenaTech announces that its subsidiary, @ZenadroneInc , has begun developing Interceptor-P1, a prototype of a small, one-way interceptor drone designed to physically neutralize hostile drones in flight. The drone is autonomous and expendable, with a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) design, and can be integrated into the company’s counter-UAS (Unmanned Aircraft System) defense system, offering cheaper costs than traditional air munitions. Aiming to address a key imbalance in modern warfare, where adversaries use large numbers of low-cost drones while conventional interception methods are far more expensive than the threats they target, the Interceptor-P1 is being developed to help reverse this cost imbalance. “The drone threat on modern battlefields is accelerating faster than legacy defense budgets can absorb. Our Interceptor-P1 is being developed to give military and security forces an affordable, scalable answer by creating an interceptor and anti-drone system for a new world of asymmetric warfare,” said @ShaunPassleyPhD, ZenaTech CEO. “Our strategy is to offer defense customers a full-spectrum of counter-drone solutions based on persistent maritime patrol with the ZenaDrone 2000 and IQ Glider launch station. Our emerging technologies are also forming a comprehensive, layered, counter-UAS ecosystem for land, sea, and littoral environments with the expendable point-intercept capabilities of the Interceptor-P1. This is exactly the kind of integrated, cost-effective capability that modern defense procurement demands.” Read the full story: zenatech.com/zenatech-devel… $ZENA $49Q #ZenaTech #ZenaDrone #CounterUAS #AntiDrone #DefenseTechnology #DroneDefense #AIDrones #MilitaryTechnology #AutonomousSystems #NationalSecurity #DefenseInnovation
