  • The selection lets AeroDefense compete for task orders under the SHIELD vehicle, including Golden Dome-related drone-detection work.
  • SHIELD is a long-term IDIQ framework with a stated $151 billion ceiling; AeroDefense has not announced a task-order award under it.
  • AeroDefense is positioning its AirWarden drone-detection systems for real-time alerts and historical airspace intelligence at sensitive sites.

AeroDefense develops RF-based drone-detection and airspace-awareness systems for defence, public safety and critical infrastructure. Its AirWarden platform provides real-time alerts, operator location data and historical activity analysis without relying on signal jamming.
