US defense-tech company Ondas has acquired Israeli GATE Technologies Ltd., specializing in electronic safe and arm devices for loitering munitions and drones, in a deal valued at $205 million with potential earn-outs. This acquisition enhances Ondas' precision strike capabilities and expands its presence in autonomous strike systems and European manufacturing.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Defense Tech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Ondas' expansion into electronic fuze components shifts supply chains for autonomous weapons. If you supply tech adjacent to munitions or drone systems, expect new partnership opportunities and increased competition.
