Draganfly Launches Draganfly Blitz™ Advanced Optical Payload Product Line to Address Growing Demand for Best-in-Class, NDAA-Compliant Integrated Gimbal Systems

Draganfly Inc. had announced the launch of the Draganfly Blitz payload platform, a family of advanced electro-optical and infrared (EO/IR) payloads and stabilized gimbal systems developed in partnership with Blitz Technologies. Under the agreement, Draganfly will serve as the exclusive integrator, distributor, and commercialization partner for Blitz Technology across North America and the broader Americas market. The launch marks Draganfly’s strategic entry into one of the fastest-growing and most supply-constrained segments of the global unmanned systems industry: mission-critical optical payloads for intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance (ISR), tactical overwatch, force protection, and autonomous systems. The global EO/IR gimbal and drone payload market is estimated to exceed $12 billion annually by 2030, driven by accelerating defense modernization programs, border security requirements, autonomous warfare initiatives, and rapidly expanding demand for drone-based ISR capabilities. Across North America and allied nations, government agencies and defense operators are increasingly seeking secure, NDAA-aligned alternatives to legacy payload suppliers amid rising geopolitical tensions, extended procurement timelines, and growing operational demand for scalable drone systems. The Draganfly Blitz platform is designed to meet that demand with lower acquisition costs, rapid production scalability, reduced delivery timelines, modular integration capability, and high-performance optical systems optimized for real-world operational deployment. The new payload family includes the Draganfly BlitzSpectrum 300, Spectrum 500, Spectrum 800, Spectrum 1600LR systems, as well as other products offering combinations of 4K and Full HD electro-optical imaging, thermal infrared capability, laser rangefinding, stabilized multi-axis gimbals, and lightweight SWaP-optimized configurations for Group 1–3 unmanned systems. The systems are engineered for defense ISR, tactical reconnaissance, search and rescue, border and maritime security, disaster response, infrastructure inspection, and public safety operations. The compact Spectrum 300 weighs under 300 grams and provides dual EO/IR capability optimized for lightweight platforms and autonomous drone systems. The larger Spectrum 800 and Spectrum 1650LR systems add advanced long-range imaging and laser rangefinding capability designed for extended ISR and tactical overwatch missions. Industry demand for compact EO/IR systems has accelerated sharply as lessons from Ukraine, the Middle East, and Indo-Pacific security planning continue to drive investment toward low-cost autonomous systems and distributed ISR architectures. Additionally, the Blitz product line is working in partnership with Corlens to integrate Corlens Inside, the first non-germanium, nano-fabricated metalens technology, making payloads, smaller, lighter, and not dependent on rare earth elements. The partnership significantly expands Draganfly’s vertically integrated drone solutions ecosystem by adding advanced optical payload capability to its existing portfolio of airframes, software, AI systems, and operational support solutions. By integrating Blitz Technology into the Draganfly ecosystem, a North American platform capable of delivering high-performance optical capability aimed to achieve the scale and speed and price point today’s market increasingly requires is being created. The agreement also includes coordinated engineering, integration, training, customer support, and go-to-market activities Draganfly will lead customer engagement, demonstrations, integration, sales, and support operations throughout the Americas. The Draganfly Blitz payload platform will officially debut at SOF Week 2026 in Tampa, Florida, where the Company will showcase the systems to military, special operations, government, and allied defense partners.
