Ondas Acquires BIRD Aerosystems to Expand Airborne Missile Protection and ISR Capabilities
Entry into the airborne missile protection market for unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and aircraft through a globally deployed aircraft protection platform installed on more than 700 aircraft across 40+ aircraft types serving U.S. Army, NATO, leading armed forces in APAC and UN aviation fleets including advanced Laser Countermeasure systems designed to defeat modern missile threats.
Acquisition adds advanced sensing, mitigation, and mission command-and-control technologies to Ondas’ platform, supporting counter-UAS operations, border protection, maritime surveillance, and airspace monitoring missions
WEST PALM BEACH, FL / March 11, 2026 / Ondas Inc. (Nasdaq: ONDS) (“Ondas” or the “Company”), a leading provider of autonomous aerial and ground robot intelligence through its Ondas Autonomous Systems (OAS) business unit and private wireless solutions through Ondas Networks, today announced that it has acquired BIRD Aerosystems, a global leading developer and provider of Airborne Missile Protection Systems (AMPS) and airborne intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) solutions for military, government and homeland security customers worldwide. The acquisition marks Ondas’ entry into the airborne and unmanned aerial systems (UAS), missile protection market, adding a new layer of defense technologies applicable to defense and security markets and complementing the Company’s growing technological portfolio of autonomous systems of systems architecture including counter-UAS capabilities, and mission intelligence solutions.
“BIRD Aerosystems adds an important and highly differentiated capability to the Ondas defense technology platform,” said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas. “Their globally deployed aircraft protection systems and advanced airborne ISR mission technologies significantly expand our footprint in airborne defense markets while strengthening our ability to deliver integrated multi-domain mission solutions. By combining BIRD’s sensing, mitigation and command-and-control capabilities with Ondas’ autonomous aerial systems, counter-UAS technologies and robotic platforms, we are advancing our strategy of building a comprehensive defense architecture designed to address the evolving security challenges facing defense and homeland security operators worldwide.”
Founded in Israel in 2001, BIRD Aerosystems has established itself as a leading developer of airborne defense technologies designed to protect aircraft and deliver advanced mission intelligence capabilities. The company’s aircraft protection systems are installed on more than 700 airborne platforms across over 40 aircraft types, supporting defense, government and special mission aviation operators including the U.S. Army, NATO forces, leading air forces that are part of APAC and United Nations aviation fleets. BIRD’s technologies have been deployed operationally in numerous global conflict zones and high-risk operational environments.
BIRD Aerosystems operates across two primary technology pillars: Airborne Missile Protection Systems (AMPS) and Airborne Surveillance, Intelligence and Observation (ASIO) mission systems. The company’s AMPS platform integrates BIRD’s unique advanced missile warning sensors and Directional Infrared Countermeasure (DIRCM) technologies designed to detect, confirm and neutralize incoming missile threats such as MANPADS, protecting aircraft operating in high-risk environments.
In parallel, BIRD’s ASIO solutions provide advanced airborne ISR and mission management capabilities combining multi-mode radar, electro-optical sensors, communications intelligence and data fusion technologies. These systems support complex surveillance missions including border protection, maritime patrol, infrastructure monitoring and airspace security, delivering real-time intelligence to ground-based command and control centers.
Following its integration with Ondas, BIRD Aerosystems will also expand its technologies into the rapidly growing market of unmanned aerial platform protection, enabling advanced missile protection solutions designed for next-generation unmanned aircraft systems. The expansion will support the growing demand for protection of autonomous aerial platforms operating in contested environments.
“Ondas is building a unique platform combining autonomous systems, advanced sensing technologies and mission intelligence capabilities designed to address modern defense and security challenges,” said Oshri Lugassy, Co-CEO of Ondas Autonomous Systems. “BIRD Aerosystems brings combat-proven airborne technologies used by defense operators worldwide. Integrating BIRD’s ISR, sensing and aircraft protection technologies into our ecosystem is expected to significantly strengthen our ability to deliver integrated solutions across counter-UAS defense, border security, airspace monitoring and national security missions.”
The acquisition continues Ondas’ strategy of expanding its global defense technology platform through targeted acquisitions of mission-critical technologies that enhance ISR, airspace defense, counter-UAS operations and autonomous security systems across NATO and allied markets. Together with Ondas’ complementary technologies, the addition of BIRD Aerosystems further strengthens Ondas’ systems-of-systems defense architecture. By integrating airborne sensing, aircraft protection technologies, autonomous ISR drones, counter-UAS capabilities and robotic ground platforms, Ondas is building a unified defense ecosystem designed to support multi-domain missions across air, ground and sensing environments.
Ondas will provide outlook information regarding BIRD Aerosystems on its earnings conference call scheduled for Wednesday, March 25, 2026 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time.
