Tel Aviv, Israel, October 1, 2026 – Axon Vision (TASE: AXN), a developer of advanced artificial intelligence solutions for defense applications, today announced the successful completion of a ForceField live-fire demonstration in Israel for a leading U.S. defense contractor with significant capabilities in ground systems and platform integration. Representatives of the U.S. company traveled to Israel specifically for the demonstration, which evaluated ForceField under operationally representative conditions against FPV drone threats.
The demonstration achieved multiple successful kinetic defeats of operational FPV targets and validated ForceField’s complete Detect-Understand-Respond operational cycle, from passive detection that creates decision time, through AI-driven threat classification and decision support, to rapid kinetic defeat, with operators retaining full engagement authority throughout.
The activity marks another milestone in the maturation of ForceField and in Axon Vision’s expansion in the U.S. defense market. As part of this effort, the company is working with U.S. defense partners to adapt and integrate its technologies for future Counter-UAS programs and platform requirements. A further, larger-scale demonstration is planned to take place in the United States later this year.
“This demonstration marks another important step in advancing ForceField and expanding our activity in the U.S. market,” said Neri Zin, CEO of Axon Vision. “Demonstrating the system against operational FPV targets for a leading U.S. defense contractor allowed us to validate the complete cycle from detection to kinetic defeat under operationally representative conditions. With a larger-scale demonstration planned in the United States later this year, our objective is to make ForceField available for integration into future U.S. Counter-UAS programs and platforms.”
ForceField is an integrated, compact Counter-UAS protection solution designed to safeguard maneuvering forces against aerial threats. Developed using the company’s EDGE AI technologies, ForceField integrates the entire operational cycle: Detect, Understand, Respond. It combines passive threat detection with AI-driven analysis and engagement, Man-on-the-Loop control, and threat neutralization through an integrated kinetic response.
ForceField is specifically designed to combat fiber-optic-controlled FPV drones and other aerial threats that cannot be countered by electronic warfare. It offers passive day-and-night detection without emitting signals that could reveal the location of the protected force, and can operate independently without continuous communications or reliance on external detection systems. Designed for rapid integration onto existing platforms, ForceField uses standard weapons and ammunition and can be provided either as a complete solution or as a detection and EDGE AI layer for integration with existing weapon systems.
Axon Vision will present ForceField alongside its family of AI-powered perception and Counter-UAS solutions at AUSA 2026, October 12-14, Hall DE, Leonardo DRS Booth #6341.
