🛸 Draganfly’s ($DPRO) Defense Breakout? Will Homeland Ties & AI Contracts Ignite a Run?

Welcome Investors!

Lockheed and Boeing built the skies of the 20th century.
But in an era of defense budget cuts, AI warfare, and leaner military operations…

A new disruptor is taking flight—affordably, autonomously, and under the radar.

Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO) isn’t just another drone company.
It’s pioneering AI-powered aerial systems built for public safety, defense, and infrastructure resilience—and it’s trading under $3.

Here’s why this overlooked microcap may be one of the boldest bets in defense-tech today:

📉 The Setup – $DPRO ( ▲ 28.02% ) trades well below analyst targets, with a 164% upside priced in based on its projected 12-month target of $7.

🎯 Budget Reallocation Tailwind – As defense spending shifts from legacy fleets to modular, AI-driven intelligence tools, micro-drone platforms like Draganfly are positioned for real procurement traction.

🤝 High-Impact Partnerships – Draganfly secured a multi-year contract with SafeLane Global for landmine mapping and integrated LiDAR solutions with Balko Technologies. These are mission-critical deployments, not prototypes.

🧠 Elite Defense & Security Leadership – In 2025, Draganfly appointed former Acting U.S. Secretary of Defense Chris Miller to its Board and Homeland Security veteran Paul Goldenberg to chair its newly launched Public Safety Advisory Board.

📅 Next Catalyst – EPS forecasts show an 85% improvement from 2025 to 2026. With new partnerships stacking up, upcoming earnings could surprise to the upside.

📡 Real-World Use Cases – Draganfly drones are active in landmine zones, infrastructure surveillance, and law enforcement—offering governments and agencies low-cost aerial intelligence where it's needed most.

🛡️ Strategic Advisory Momentum – Goldenberg—named “America’s Most Influential Person in Homeland Security”—brings 30+ years of law enforcement and national security experience, aligning Draganfly with real-world tactical demand.

With global tensions rising and the Department of Defense cutting back on traditional platforms, Draganfly could be the next big tactical breakout for investors.
