Canada and Ukraine have signed a long-term defense agreement to jointly produce uncrewed systems, counter-drone technologies, and munitions, integrating Ukrainian battlefield experience with Canadian technology. Additionally, Canada commits $350 million to air defense interceptors for Ukraine and launches a digital drone marketplace to boost Canadian Armed Forces drone supply.

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

◆ The Wire takeaway

Your defence tech startup should start pitching to Canadian government channels for new drone and counter-drone contracts as the national drone market opens wide with government backing. The joint Canada-Ukraine deal also signals a rare growth window for suppliers with international battlefield technology experience.
