DRAGANFLY AND SAFELANE GLOBAL ENTER INTO MULTI-YEAR AGREEMENT WITH DRAGANFLY AS THE PREFERRED GLOBAL PROVIDER OF LANDMINE MAPPING DRONES AND AERIAL SURVEY SERVICES

Draganfly Inc. has been selected by SafeLane Global Ltd. as its preferred unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and aerial survey provider.

SafeLane, a world-renowned specialist in explosive threat mitigation, is one of only two private organizations licensed by the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense to conduct landmine and explosive ordnance clearance operations in Ukraine. With over 30 years of experience across more than 60 countries, SafeLane supports governments, humanitarian organizations, and commercial clients in the clearance and disposal of landmines, unexploded ordnance (UXO) and explosive remnants of war (ERW), both on land and underwater.

Under the agreement, Draganfly will provide advanced drone solutions, including UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles), specialized sensors and data analysis services, to support SafeLane's global mine action initiatives. The collaboration aims to enhance the speed, accuracy and safety of explosive threat detection and removal operations in high-risk environments.

"We are honoured to be selected as SafeLane's UAS partner," said Cameron Chell, president and chief executive officer of Draganfly. "This partnership represents a significant opportunity to leverage Draganfly's technology to support critical humanitarian and defence efforts. Together, we will work to deliver scalable, innovative solutions for global landmine action."

The companies will co-develop joint intellectual property and standard operating procedures tailored for aerial mine detection and clearance. SafeLane will lead proposal submissions and operational deployment, while Draganfly will provide technology, mission planning, piloting and survey analysis.

According to the Landmine Monitor 2023, more than 60 million landmines remain buried across over 60 countries, posing a persistent threat to civilians, especially children, who account for nearly half of the casualties. Ukraine is currently one of the most mine-contaminated countries in the world.

"Draganfly's drone-based technology will significantly increase the safety and efficiency of our operations," said Asa Gilbert, director of business development at SafeLane. "This partnership is a critical step in helping communities recover from the legacy of conflict."

The collaboration further positions Draganfly as a key player in the defense and humanitarian sectors, supporting efforts to create safer environments in some of the world's most vulnerable regions.
