Draganfly ( (TSE:DPRO) ) has provided an announcement.

On February 19, 2026, Draganfly Inc. said it will participate in the Canadian Army’s first Minerva Collaborative Uncrewed Aircraft Systems Working Group in Ottawa starting Monday, February 23, aligning itself with the Government of Canada’s newly announced Defence Industrial Strategy. The company framed its role as supporting a policy shift that prioritizes sovereign defence capabilities and domestic production of advanced uncrewed and autonomous aerial systems.

The federal strategy, unveiled on February 17 by Prime Minister Mark Carney, designates drones as a critical sovereign capability and emphasizes “Build in Canada” procurement, creating a favourable backdrop for established domestic providers such as Draganfly. By joining the working group, Draganfly aims to cement a leadership position in Canada’s defence drone ecosystem and potentially deepen ties with the Canadian Armed Forces, with implications for its long-term role in military supply chains and innovation efforts.
