Safe Pro Group was awarded a new subcontract from a Defense Prime Contractor to provide the U.S. Army with a turnkey, field-ready battlefield intelligence capability powered by its patented AI technology, processing visual data captured by Red Cat Black WidowTM drones. Safe Pro was also contracted to provide AI model and algorithm software upgrades, training and operational support services. The Company anticipates completing delivery of this order to the U.S. Army in the second quarter of 2026.

Powered by Safe Pro’s patented SPOTD (Safe Pro Object Threat Detection) technology, the NODE edge compute system uses AI and machine learning algorithms trained on one of the world’s largest real-world drone-based imagery datasets to instantly detect small, hard-to-find threats such as landmines, cluster munitions, UXO, and ambush drones. The platform can identify more than 150 types of explosive threats and objects of interest across large-scale, high-risk environments, turning drone-based video data into detailed 2D & 3D models. Operating on the edge without the need for connectivity, NODE enables the rapid generation of orthomosaics, vegetation height, terrain slope and digital surface maps and 3D models, all incorporating detected threats, providing rapid battlefield situational awareness to end users.

Built on battle-tested AI, Safe Pro’s technology converts raw visual data collected by drones into rapidly shareable, high-resolution 2D and 3D maps, providing a novel and scalable approach to situational awareness on the battlefield. Safe Pro’s AI dataset includes more than 2.75 million drone images and over 50,348 confirmed detections collected in over 35,000 acres of battlefields in Ukraine.
