特朗普家族支持的无人机公司Powerus与美国签署武器采购协议

Odaily Odaily News: The U.S. Air Force has agreed to purchase an undisclosed number of interceptor drones from a company supported by the son of President Trump. As the Iran-U.S. war enters its third month, this move deepens the ties between the U.S. military and defense contractors linked to the Trump family. Veljkovic, co-founder of Powerus, stated that the company will sell these drones to the Pentagon following a demonstration in Arizona. This marks Powerus's first contract to sell such weapons to the U.S. military. The company declined to disclose the terms or scale of the deal, but such transactions are common when the military evaluates new weapon systems. The move aligns with the U.S. strategy of using cheap interceptor drones to counter Iran's attack drones, rather than deploying expensive missiles. Reports indicate that the U.S. military has already deployed 10,000 AI-equipped Merops interceptor drones developed in Ukraine to the Middle East.
