Lockheed Martin Selects Fortem Technologies to Protect Critical Infrastructure from Drones

LINDON, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Fortem Technologies, the global leader in airspace security, today announced a contract with Lockheed Martin to deploy autonomous counter-drone systems to protect critical infrastructure.

Under the agreement, Fortem will provide its TrueView™ radar sensors and DroneHunter^® autonomous interceptors, which will be integrated with Lockheed Martin’s Sanctum C-UAS Mission Management software. This solution will provide persistent, layered airspace defense against unauthorized or hostile drones.

Fortem Technologies CEO Jon Gruen said the deployment reflects growing demand for advanced systems capable of detecting and intercepting drones in sensitive environments.

“Fortem has spent years proving our counter-drone technology in conflict zones and at some of the highest-profile events in the world,” Gruen said. “This contract puts that same capability to work protecting critical infrastructure.”

The Lockheed Martin collaboration builds upon a string of recent milestones that underscore accelerating demand for Fortem’s technology. The Department of Homeland Security recently awarded Fortem a multimillion-dollar contract to protect U.S. venues at the 2026 FIFA World Cup – the company’s second consecutive FIFA tournament – and the U.S. Army awarded a three-year, $18 million contract to provide counter-drone solutions and support services at Army sites worldwide.
