DroneShield and EOS Cooperation in 2025: How Australian Counter‑Drone Tech Is Reinforcing NATO Air Defences

DroneShield and EOS Cooperation in 2025: How Australian Counter‑Drone Tech Is Reinforcing NATO Air Defences

In 2025, two Australian companies – DroneShield and Electro Optic Systems (EOS) – moved from niche suppliers to central actors in NATO’s response to the drone threat over Europe and Ukraine. Their technologies are different but complementary: DroneShield specialises in “soft‑kill” detection and jamming, while EOS brings “hard‑kill” effectors such as guns, lasers and, now, interceptor drones. Importantly, there is no publicly announced formal joint venture between DroneShield and EOS as of December 2025. Instead, their cooperation is happening in practice: their systems are increasingly deployed side‑by‑side inside layered counter‑UAS architectures that NATO states and Australia are rushing to field.
