Powerus and Pakistan Army Forge Drone Agreement Amid Evolving US Relations
- On Wednesday, U.S. drone manufacturer Powerus signed a memorandum of understanding with the Pakistan Army, including an initial drone-related order that signals deepening defense ties between Washington and Islamabad.
- A Powerus delegation led by co-founder Brett Velicovich met Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir to discuss defense production and long-term capacity building amid warming relations after years of strained ties.
- Powerus expects to merge in early October with Aureus Greenway Holdings, backed by Eric Trump, with American Ventures holding a 9.9% beneficial ownership stake in the combined entity.
- Andrew Fox, Powerus' chief executive, dismissed suggestions the company's growth is linked to Trump family involvement, stating contracts were awarded on merit. Principal Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly said, "There are no conflicts of interest."
- Fox described Pakistan's private defense sector as "emerging but still not mature," creating opportunities for United States firms. Powerus is exploring ways to potentially build technology within Pakistan to foster a joint technology relationship.
