Elsight (ASX:ELS), a global provider of resilient connectivity solutions for unmanned systems, has secured a US$460,000 purchase order from a US-based public safety customer, marking its first announced commercial deal for 2026.
The order underscores the growing commercial appeal of Elsight's Halo platform beyond defence applications, particularly as the public safety sector emerges as a key early adopter of beyond visual line of sight drone operations for critical applications such as emergency response and situational awareness.
The milestone coincides with accelerating US regulatory developments, including the FAA's ongoing "Part 108" rulemaking aimed at normalising routine BVLOS operations, with a final rule widely expected by spring 2026.
Elsight CEO Yoav Amitai said the order demonstrates the commercial value of the company’s technology in high-demand operational environments and reflects early momentum ahead of broader regulatory adoption.
At the time of reporting, Elsight's share price was $3.46.
