US-based drone company Powerus signed an agreement with India’s Paras Defence in June to manufacture and commercialise its Guardian-1 counter-drone system, months before its deal with the Pakistan Army. Under the agreement, Paras Defence received exclusive rights to manufacture and sell the Guardian-1 system in India. The battery-powered interceptor is designed to detect, track and neutralise aerial threats, including attack drones and drone swarms. In September, Powerus signed an MoU with the Pakistan Army involving unmanned aerial systems, with the order details kept confidential. Powerus is linked financially to Donald Trump’s sons through an investment fund, though they have been described as passive investors. (PC: India Today)
