EagleNXT Announces Fifteen-Unit eBee VISION Order from U.S. Army Unit in Europe, Expands Global Defense Deployment Footprint

Order reflects continued adoption of Blue UAS-listed platform across allied operational environments

ALLEN, Texas, April 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AgEagle Aerial Systems Inc. (dba, EagleNXT) (the “Company” or “EagleNXT”) (NYSE: UAVS), a leading provider of full stack drone, sensors and software solutions for customers worldwide in the commercial and government verticals, today announced the sale of 15 eBee VISION unmanned aerial systems to a U.S. Army unit stationed in Europe. The order contributes to the platform’s expanding global deployment across allied defense and security missions and marks a cumulative delivery milestone for the system.

“Ongoing acquisition of the eBee VISION by U.S. and allied defense operators shows that this platform delivers operational value in mission-critical environments,” said EagleNXT CEO Bill Irby. “We see a strong increase in both domestic and international adoption, which is driving repeat orders, strengthening customer partnerships, and growing the installed base. We are proud to provide this capability and after-sale support and sustainment to the U.S. Army.”

The eBee VISION is a Blue UAS-listed and NDAA-compliant fixed-wing intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) system designed for tactical situational awareness. The platform provides real-time high-definition and thermal video, long-endurance flight capability and secure architecture suitable for GNSS-challenged environments.

The transaction was facilitated through EagleNXT’s trusted regional partner, Dronivo GmbH, leaders in professional and tactical drone solutions across Germany and Europe.

Since its introduction, the eBee VISION has achieved widespread global deployment, with units now actively in operation around the world, in multiple defense and civil mission sets. This global reach demonstrates the platform’s reliability and versatility across diverse climates, terrains, and operational requirements.

This acquisition strengthens allied readiness for NATO amid evolving geopolitical demands. For EagleNXT, the order underscores the growing global adoption of the eBee VISION as a trusted system in defense and security applications, due to its Blue UAS Cleared listing and continuing integrations with U.S. military units and allied forces.
