The achievement\ndemonstrates Ondas' capabilities in delivering complex, fully integrated\nprotection systems that meet stringent international aviation certification\nrequirements.\n\n\"Protecting high-value aircraft and government aviation assets against\nincreasingly sophisticated missile threats is a critical and growing defense\nrequirement,\" said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas. \"This certification\ndemonstrates the advanced capabilities and operational expertise within our\ngrowing defense technology portfolio. As we continue building Ondas into a\nglobal defense technology leader, we see significant opportunities to expand\nour presence in airborne protection, leveraging proven technologies and\ncomplex system integration capabilities to address the evolving requirements\nof government and defense customers worldwide.\"\n\nThe AMPS suite, developed by BIRD Aerosystems, an Ondas company, is designed\nto protect aircraft against Man-Portable Air-Defense Systems (MANPADS) and\nother infrared-guided missile threats. The system integrates advanced missile\nwarning, threat detection and confirmation, tracking and directional infrared\ncountermeasure capabilities, enabling rapid and accurate response to missile\nthreats while reducing false alarms to virtually zero. Designed as an\nintegrated, end-to-end protection solution, AMPS can be adapted to a wide\nrange of aircraft platforms, including helicopters, transport aircraft,\ncommercial aircraft and VVIP/head-of-state aircraft. Its differentiated\ncapabilities combine advanced missile protection technology with extensive\nexpertise in complex aircraft integration and certification, enabling turnkey\nprograms covering system design, integration, certification, installation and\noperational support.\n\nThe EASA certification confirms that the integration of the missile protection\nsuite on the Bombardier Global 7500 meets applicable European airworthiness\nrequirements, enabling the aircraft to incorporate the advanced protection\ncapability within its certified configuration. The Global 7500 joins a growing\nrange of high-value aircraft platforms equipped with the Company's airborne\nmissile protection solutions.\n\nOndas' ability to serve both military and civilian markets represents a\ndistinctive competitive advantage, enabling the Company to leverage advanced\ndefense technologies, operational expertise and system integration\ncapabilities across a broad range of applications. Ondas expects to expand\nmarket potential of its technologies, create additional revenue opportunities\nand accelerate adoption across multiple sectors.
