AVENTURA, Fla., Aug. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN - Safe Pro Group Inc. (Nasdaq: SPAI) (“Safe Pro” or the “Company”), a leader in artificial intelligence (AI)-powered defense and security solutions, today announced that the U.S. Army has selected the Company for two key components of its 2026 Concept Focused Warfighter Experiment (CFWE), adding its participation in the Live Breach event in addition to the previously announced CFWE Maneuver (CFWE-M) technology demonstration event. A new video demonstrating Safe Pro Group’s AI threat detection capability can be seen by clicking here.
This dual selection by the U.S. Army’s Futures Command (AFC) recognizes Safe Pro’s patented AI-driven computer vision technology for analyzing drone imagery and detecting battlefield threats in real time. The CFWE serves as a premier Army venue for collaborative experimentation, bringing together Cross-Functional Teams (CFTs), Centers of Excellence (CoEs), technology developers, and industry innovators to explore and validate emerging capabilities at the small unit level. Through events such as the CFWE-M, the AFC is honoring its mission to help ensure the Army and its soldiers remain at the forefront of technological innovation and warfighting ability.
“Our selection for multiple components of the Army’s Concept Focused Warfighter Experiment underscore the critical value of our real-time AI threat detection capabilities,” said Dan Erdberg, chairman and CEO of Safe Pro Group Inc. “As the Pentagon dramatically increases its investment in drone and AI technologies, we are proud to be supporting next generation force protection and mission planning through advanced, field-tested solutions.”
At CFWE, in addition to participating in the live breach event, Safe Pro team members plan to conduct demonstrations of its patented, AI-powered computer vision technologies including its SPOTD AI-powered drone-based imagery analysis platform. The Company’s image analysis platform can detect and identify over 150 types of landmines and unexploded ordnance in a fraction of a second per image, rapidly delivering mission-critical, battlefield situational awareness. Safe Pro’s technology is built on more than 2.5 years of successful operations conducted in Ukraine where its real-world datasets include high-resolution drone imagery and GPS-tagged geospatial data encompassing over 1.66 million drone images analyzed to date, and 28,000+ threats identified across 6,705 hectares.
Safe Pro is utilizing its real-world dataset to develop new, real-time force protection solutions for soldiers by integrating its technology into the TAK software ecosystem, which includes the U.S. Army’s ATAK (Android Tactical Assault Kit) platform. Integration into ATAK can allow detections of small explosive threats instantly identified in drone-based imagery by the Company’s AI technology to be quickly shared across potentially hundreds of thousands of soldier-carried and vehicle-mounted, wireless-connected devices widely utilized by the U.S. Armed Forces.
The Company’s growing role in Army experimentation comes as the Senate Committee on Appropriations recently advanced a proposed $617 million “plus-up” in funding for Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (SUAS), which includes the Short Range Reconnaissance (SRR) program, an initiative Safe Pro’s drone-based AI supports. This funding boost, combined with the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) allocating up to $30 billion for drones, AI, and broader defense modernization, presents significant new opportunities for Safe Pro’s deployment in global force protection and humanitarian demining missions.
