Draganfly Inc., an award-winning drone solutions and systems developer, has entered into a definitive asset purchase agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of Skip Dynamix Corporation’s drone technology business. Skip Dynamix specializes in ultra-low-cost, mass-producible fixed-wing unmanned aerial systems designed for long-range intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), electronic warfare support, logistics, and one-way missions.
The transaction deepens Draganfly’s defense platform portfolio and strategically positions the company within one of the fastest-growing segments of the global defense technology market: low-cost autonomous aerial systems capable of scalable deployment in contested environments. The deal will combine Draganfly’s proven manufacturing, autonomy, AI, command-and-control, and military systems integration capabilities with Skip Dynamix’s innovative fixed-wing platform architecture optimized for affordability, rapid production, modular payload integration, and long-range operational deployment.
Cameron Chell, Chief Executive Officer of Draganfly, stated:
“Modern conflicts have fundamentally reshaped military procurement priorities. The battlefield lessons emerging from Ukraine, the Middle East, and evolving Indo-Pacific security planning are clear: survivable mass, low-cost autonomy, long-range ISR, and systems are becoming core operational requirements for allied defense forces. Skip Dynamix gives Draganfly a highly scalable platform capable of addressing this rapidly expanding global demand while complementing our existing ISR, logistics, and tactical drone defense technologies.”
Positioned for the New Era of Attributable Autonomous Systems
The transaction coincides with accelerating global defense investment into low-cost autonomous aerial systems designed for persistent ISR, swarm deployment, electronic warfare resilience, and one-way operations. The Department of War has publicly identified low-cost autonomous systems as a strategic priority aimed at rapidly fielding large numbers of expendable autonomous systems for contested operational theaters.
Scalable, Modular, and Mission Adaptable
Skip Dynamix’s systems architecture, integrated into the Draganfly platform, is designed around rapid manufacturability, operational flexibility, and modular mission payloads, supporting applications including long-range ISR, maritime surveillance, border security, communications relay, electronic warfare support, autonomous logistics delivery, force protection, one-way missions, and swarm operations. The systems are designed to integrate with commercially scalable manufacturing approaches and open architecture payload systems.
