Additional Orders received for Mobilicom’s Cybersecure Drone Data Link System from One of the Largest U.S.-based Drone Manufacturers — Market Expected to Reach $18 Billion by 2030, Growing at an Annual Compound Rate of 25%

Shoham, Israel, July 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  Mobilicom Limited (Nasdaq: MOB), a provider of cybersecurity and robust solutions for drones and robotics, today announced that it has received a follow-on order from a one of the largest U.S.  drone manufacturers of “small-sized” drones. This defense manufacturer, with over $5 billion in annual sales, is equipping its drones with Mobilicom’s SkyHopper PRO. These drones are sold to end-users in the U.S. defense market, including the U.S. Department of Defense


Mobilicom’s SkyHopper PRO datalink was chosen over four other competing products following intensive field testing. SkyHopper PRO is a Secured Cognitive Software Defined Radio (SDR), with enhanced combat-proven performance, including in harsh environments. It offers what the company believes to be, the best performance-to-SWaP-C (Size, Weight, Power and Cost) in the market based on an internal study of competitor product offerings. Other key factors considered include the Company’s excellent customer support, fast production and delivery times.

The global drone data link system market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 25% and reach approximately  $18 billion by 2030. Mobilicom expects that its solutions may fill a growing demand as this customer and other Tier-1 manufacturers continue to sell uncrewed autonomous vehicles (UAVs).

“This order, valued at approximately $500,000, is expected to be followed up with larger orders as this drone manufacturer continues to successfully compete and win government tenders for thousands of its drones.” stated Mobilicom CEO and Founder Oren Elkayam.
