Delivery of U.S.-Manufactured Ballistic Protection Products Expected in Q3; AI Demonstration Supports U.S. DoD Operational Objectives in the Pacific Rim
AVENTURA, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / July 18, 2025 / Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ:SPAI) ("Safe Pro" or the "Company"), a leader in artificial intelligence (AI)-powered defense and security solutions, today announced that it has received a new order from a U.S. Government Contractor (the "Contractor" or the "Customer") operating in support of the US Department of State landmine and explosive ordnance remediation initiatives in the Indo-Asia Pacific region. The order includes the supply of U.S.-manufactured ballistic and Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) protective equipment which is scheduled for delivery in the third quarter of 2025.
In addition to planned EOD and ballistic protective gear deliveries, Safe Pro will demonstrate in theater its proprietary drone-powered artificial intelligence platform SpotlightAITM showcasing the Company's advanced AI-driven computer vision technology for the identification of land mines and unexploded ordinance.
With the Company's patented SpotlightAITM system now having processed more than 1.66 million real-world battlefield images gathered in Ukraine and the recent passing of the U.S. government's One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) FY 2026 funding bill, the Company has initiated a strategic operational expansion plan to support the U.S. Department of Defense's (DoD's) United States Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM). This vast area of responsibility spans more than 100 million square miles, accounting for approximately 52% of the Earth's surface, and includes five key component commands: U.S. Pacific Fleet, U.S. Pacific Air Forces, U.S. Army Pacific, U.S. Marine Forces Pacific, and U.S. Space Forces Indo-Pacific. USINDOPACOM oversees roughly 375,000 military and civilian personnel.
"With our industry-leading drone data AI models backed by real-world results, Safe Pro is attracting significant recognition for its unique AI capabilities and solutions that address the global threat of landmines and unexploded ordnance. We are honored to now have an opportunity to expand our operations into the Pacific Rim and build on our ongoing discussions with USINDOPACOM, one of the largest commands within the U.S. Department of Defense," said Dan Erdberg, chairman and CEO of Safe Pro Group Inc. "Aligned with DoD's commitment to ‘unleashing U.S. Military Drone Dominance,' which is supported by new federal funding under the OBBA, we are excited to capitalize on the new opportunities for our unique, battle-tested drone and AI technologies and look forward to supporting the missions of our armed forces."
As previously communicated, Safe Pro sees significant opportunities for its patented AI-powered computer vision technologies for the rapid analysis of drone-based imagery following the passage of the OBBBA. The bill allocates as much as $30 billion in direct spending on drones and artificial intelligence and broader defense modernization for the Department of Defense (DoD).
The Company's AI-powered drone-based imagery analysis platform can detect and identify over 150 types of landmines and unexploded ordnance in a fraction of a second per image, rapidly delivering mission-critical situational awareness. Deployed on the edge in real-time (SpotlightAITM OnSite) or leveraging Amazon Web Services (AWS) on the cloud (SpotlightAITM), the Company's Safe Pro Object Threat Detection (SPOTD) technology can scale globally, offering solutions for rapid battlefield analysis as well as supporting large-scale commercial and humanitarian demining operations. Powering the Company's SPOTD technology, Safe Pro's unique real-world datasets include high-resolution drone imagery and GPS-tagged geospatial data encompassing over 1.66 million drone images analyzed to date, and 28,000+ threats identified across 6,705 hectares in Ukraine, an area nearly equivalent in size to Manhattan.
This dataset is also being used to develop new, real-time force protection solutions for soldiers by integrating the technology into the TAK software ecosystem, which includes the U.S. Army's ATAK (Android Tactical Assault Kit or ATAK) platform. Integration of SPOTD into ATAK can allow detections of small explosive threats instantly identified in drone-based imagery by the Company's AI technology to be quickly shared across potentially hundreds of thousands of soldier-carried and vehicle-mounted, wireless-connected devices widely utilized by the U.S. Armed Forces.
