The milestone marks the establishment of Mobilicom's first U.S. manufacturing operations in Phoenix, Arizona, with initial domestically manufactured products currently expected by the end of 2026. “We are proud to deliver on our 2026 strategic initiative to establish U.S.-based manufacturing operations,” said Oren Elkayam, CEO of Mobilicom. “Our technologies have been trusted, validated and deployed across U.S. defense programs. Expanding our manufacturing footprint into the U.S. is the next step in scaling production to meet growing customer demand, shorten delivery lead times and enhance supply chain resilience. With our first U.S.-manufactured products expected by year-end, we believe Mobilicom will be well-positioned to support larger-scale deployments and capture additional market share in 2027 and beyond.” Mobilicom's expansion into U.S. manufacturing builds on its established presence in the U.S. defense market, including the integration of its technologies into a Tier-1 drone platform selected for a U.S. Department of War Program of Record. The Company's cybersecure solutions are NDAA-compliant and have been included in the FCC's initial Trusted Drones exemptions and the Department of War's Blue UAS Framework, reinforcing its position as a trusted supplier of mission-critical technologies for U.S. defense applications.
