Ondas Holdings shares surge 11.33% intraday after securing defense contracts, acquiring Sentrycs for enhanced counter-UAS tech, and expanding Palantir partnership for scalable operations.

Ondas Holdings surged 11.33% intraday following a series of strategic developments bolstering its position in autonomous defense systems. The stock’s rally coincided with the acquisition of Sentrycs, a leader in counter-UAS cyber technology, expanding its global reach to 25+ countries and enhancing its "detect-to-defeat" capabilities. Recent partnerships, including a $3.5 million defense contract for Apeiro ground robotics and a collaboration with Rift Dynamics to distribute 20,000 attritable Wasp drones monthly, signaled strong demand for its solutions. Additionally, the appointment of a U.S. Army general to its advisory board and a partnership with Palantir to integrate Foundry’s enterprise data systems underscored operational scalability and military credibility. These moves, combined with the launch of Ondas Capital to fund $150 million in unmanned systems deployment, reinforced investor confidence in the company’s growth trajectory in the defense and security sectors.
