ParaZero Expands U.S. Footprint with Order from a New Customer, an American Defense Manufacturer

Order includes Net Pods and integration support to add net interception capabilities to a drone interceptor platform designed for critical infrastructure and strategic site protection

KFAR SABA, Israel, Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --   ParaZero Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq: PRZO) (“ParaZero” or the “Company”), an aerospace defense company pioneering smart, autonomous solutions for the global manned and unmanned aerial systems (UAS) industry, today announced receipt of an initial order from a new U.S.-based defense manufacturer for DefendAir Net Pods and related integration support.

The customer develops drone detection and interception technologies and holds contracts to protect critical infrastructure and strategic sites. The order supports the integration of ParaZero’s DefendAir Net Pods into the customer’s drone interceptor platform, adding non-explosive net interception alongside its existing hit-to-kill capability.

The integration is intended to connect the customer’s detection and tracking capabilities with DefendAir’s physical interception technology, providing an additional engagement option for countering hostile drones. ParaZero will supply Net Pods and technical support for the integration process.

The initial order expands ParaZero’s footprint in the U.S. counter-UAS market and reflects demand for adaptable interception technologies that can be integrated into third-party defense platforms.

“Protecting critical infrastructure and strategic sites requires the ability to detect a drone threat and act to stop it,” said Ariel Alon, Chief Executive Officer of ParaZero. “This initial order expands our U.S. footprint through a new platform integration, adding DefendAir’s non-explosive net interception to the customer’s existing capabilities. Our Net Pods and integration support provide the foundation for that work.”

DefendAir uses net-based physical interception to stop hostile drones at the last defensive layer. Its Net Pods support integration into multiple platforms, enabling manufacturers to incorporate ParaZero’s interception technology into their counter-UAS systems.

The DefendAir product family will be showcased at ParaZero’s booth at the AUSA Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C., October 12–14, within the SIBAT (Israeli Ministry of Defense) National Defense Pavilion, Booth #739.
