Ondas’ American Robotics Partners with Detroit Manufacturing Systems to Scale U.S. Drone Manufacturing to Meet Increasing Demand
Manufacturing in Michigan Accelerates Ondas’ Delivery Timelines for Major Programs, Secures Domestic Supply Chains Resilience, Opens Doors to Growing Opportunities in U.S. Defense and Security Markets with NDAA-Compliant, Made-In-America Drones, and Strengthens Export Readiness to U.S. Allies
Detroit Manufacturing Systems (DMS) Brings Industrial Scale Proven Excellence in U.S. Manufacturing with Speed, Cost Efficiency, and Resiliency
Partnership is Expected to Benefit from Policies Outlined in the Trump Administration’s Recent Unleashing American Drone Dominance Executive Order
Working Together, Ondas and DMS Aim to Ensure the U.S. Leads the World in Autonomous Drone Manufacturing, Deployment, and Regulatory Innovation
Sparks, MD / June 25, 2025 / Ondas Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: ONDS) (“Ondas” or the “Company”), a leading provider of private industrial wireless networks and commercial drone and automated data solutions, announced today that its Ondas Autonomous Systems (“OAS”) business unit’s American Robotics subsidiary has entered into a Letter of Intent for a strategic partnership with Detroit Manufacturing Systems (“DMS”) to support the U.S.-based manufacturing and supply chain operations of its autonomous drone platforms. All manufacturing and assembly to take place through DMSs’ advanced manufacturing operations, Kinetyc, in Wixom, Michigan, leveraging high quality American production.
Under the agreement, DMS will serve as American Robotics’ contract manufacturer and supply chain manager for both U.S. and export markets, significantly enhancing American Robotics’ ability to scale production and deliver its FAA Type Certified autonomous drone platforms with greater speed, cost efficiency, and resiliency.
This announcement comes in concert with President Trump’s recent Unleashing American Drone Dominance Executive Order designed to bolster U.S. leadership in drone innovation and industrial revitalization. The Executive Order is expected to unlock major investment cycles in the domestic drone sector by supporting critical infrastructure protection, workforce development, and reshoring of advanced manufacturing. The Ondas–DMS partnership aligns directly with these policy objectives by strengthening the American industrial base for dual-use autonomous systems.
“Our partnership with DMS marks a pivotal milestone in scaling our production capabilities and reinforces our commitment to building a secure, resilient, and sovereign industrial base for advanced drone technologies,” said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas Holdings. “This collaboration positions American Robotics to respond quickly to increasing demand from defense, homeland security, and critical infrastructure markets, and to do so with American-made systems.”
The partnership is also a key step in supporting American Robotics’ strategic focus on dual-use markets—systems that serve both civilian and government missions. With rapidly increasing demand from U.S. defense and homeland security agencies for autonomous drone capabilities, we believe the collaboration with DMS enables American Robotics to meet mission-critical delivery timelines with U.S.-built platforms that comply with National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and Buy American standards. These capabilities are equally vital for civilian customers operating in public safety, energy, transportation, and other critical infrastructure sectors.
“We believe American Robotics is uniquely positioned to lead the next wave of drone deployment in the United States and allied nations,” said Timothy “T3” Tenne, CEO of American Robotics. “By combining our industry-first FAA Type Certification, advanced Remote Operations Center capabilities, and now a robust domestic manufacturing partner in DMS, we’re accelerating our ability to support key government and commercial customers at scale.”
DMS is a leading American manufacturer with deep experience in delivering high-quality components and systems for demanding applications including government and defense contracts. With facilities in Detroit and Wixom, Michigan, DMS brings industrial scale and a track record of excellence in operations, quality, and supply chain management.
“We are excited to partner with American Robotics to support the rapid scale-up of its groundbreaking autonomous drone platforms,” said Bruce Smith, CEO of Detroit Manufacturing Systems. “This collaboration reflects strong, growing demand across both commercial and defense markets for high-performance, American-made uncrewed systems. At DMS, via our advanced manufacturing operations at Kinetyc, we’re proud to bring our manufacturing excellence to bear in strengthening the U.S. defense industrial base and helping ensure the secure, reliable production of critical aerospace technologies.”
This partnership strengthens American Robotics’ manufacturing base as the FAA prepares to implement its Part 108 framework, which will enable expanded beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) drone operations at scale. Together, Ondas and DMS aim to ensure that the United States leads the world in autonomous drone manufacturing, deployment, and regulatory innovation.
