American Marconi Wireless News - Ondas Acquires INDO Earth Moving Ltd. Following its $140 Million Strategic Procurement Tender Award for Military Heavy Engineering Platforms from a Major Military Customer

WEST PALM BEACH, FL / ACCESS Newswire / March 17, 2026 / Ondas Inc. (Nasdaq:ONDS) ("Ondas" or the "Company"), a leading provider of autonomous aerial and ground robot intelligence through its Ondas Autonomous Systems (OAS) business unit and private wireless solutions through Ondas Networks, today announced that it has acquired INDO Earth Moving Ltd. ("INDO"), a company specializing in the procurement, integration, and lifecycle support of heavy engineering equipment for military and national infrastructure programs. INDO was recently awarded, as prime contractor, a tender valued at $140 million under a strategic procurement plan for Heavy Engineering Platforms from a major military customer, covering the supply of a fleet of heavy-tracked engineering vehicles together with long-term maintenance, logistics, and operational support services. The program includes the delivery of dozens of military Heavy Engineering Platforms over a two-year period and the establishment of sustainment infrastructure designed to support ongoing operational deployment for at least the next four years.

"Engineering vehicles such as Heavy Engineering Platforms play a critical role in modern military operations, enabling mobility, force protection, and the construction of defensive and operational infrastructure in complex environments," said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas. "INDO brings a proven operational platform and an important $140 million tender with a major defense customer. By combining INDO's engineering equipment expertise with Ondas' capabilities in robotics, autonomous systems, and mission technologies, we believe we can deliver advanced engineering platforms designed for the evolving needs of modern defense forces. We see immediate revenue production as well as operating leverage with OAS' Roboteam and Apeiro ground systems."

As part of its long-term strategy, Ondas plans to pursue future upgrades of engineering vehicles into robotic and autonomous platforms, integrating technologies such as remote operation, autonomous navigation, advanced perception systems, and mission automation software. The acquisition also creates strong synergies across Ondas' growing portfolio of autonomous defense technologies. Ondas also expects to leverage capabilities from its 4M Defense which specializes in demining and land intelligence, Roboteam ground robotics platform, which develops advanced unmanned ground systems used by defense forces worldwide, as well as Apeiro, focused on advanced ground robotics platforms.

"Combat engineering equipment operates in some of the most demanding and dangerous environments," said Oshri Lugassy, Co-CEO of Ondas Autonomous Systems. "By combining INDO's engineering vehicle platform with Ondas' autonomy architecture, we see the opportunity to evolve these systems into robotic engineering vehicles capable of operating in high-risk environments while significantly improving safety and operational effectiveness."

Military engineering vehicles are central to combat engineering missions including route clearance, obstacle breaching, defensive fortification construction, and battlefield mobility operations. By extending its autonomy architecture into heavy engineering platforms, Ondas aims to build a multi-domain autonomous ecosystem spanning aerial systems, ground robotics, and robotic engineering equipment, enabling integrated mission capabilities for defense and homeland security customers.

Beyond military applications, the combined platform may also address significant opportunities across border security infrastructure, critical infrastructure development, disaster response, and post-conflict reconstruction, where robotic operation of heavy machinery can significantly improve operational efficiency while reducing risk to personnel.

Ondas believes the acquisition represents an important step in the Company's strategy to expand its portfolio of advanced autonomous technologies and robotic systems designed for mission-critical defense and infrastructure operations worldwide.

For additional information regarding the acquisition, please see the Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission later today. Ondas will provide outlook information regarding INDO on its earnings conference call scheduled for Wednesday, March 25, 2026 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time.
