Duke Robotics to Receive First Royalty Revenues through its Collaboration with Elbit

The Company expects to receive revenues, for the first time, through its collaboration with Elbit from initial sales of the “Birds of Prey” stabilized weapons drone system

FT. LAUDERDALE, FL, July 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Duke Robotics Corp. (OTCQB: DUKR) (“Duke Robotics” or the “Company“), a leader in advanced robotics technology and autonomous drone solutions, today announced that it expects to receive initial revenues from royalties for sales of the “Birds of Prey” stabilized weapons drone systems through its collaboration with Elbit Land Systems Ltd (“Elbit”).

The stabilized weapons drone system, which has been marketed and deployed by Elbit under the brand name “Birds of Prey”, features proprietary technology that enables precise remote operations via an unmanned aerial platform, designed to enhance military operational capabilities while minimizing risk to personnel with no boots on the ground.

“We believe that these revenues from royalties through our collaboration with Elbit, represent an important development for Duke Robotics,” said Yossef Balucka, Chief Executive Officer of Duke Robotics. “This milestone represents an important advacement in our strategy to monetize our proprietary technologies across both military and civilian applications, at a time when Israeli defense technologies are demonstrating their strategic importance on the global stage.”

As per the previously announced Collaboration Agreement between the Company and Elbit from February 2021, the Company will receive royalties from sales of this system in accordance with the terms of the agreement. Additionally, in April 2025, the Company announced an expansion of its collaboration with Elbit that allows Duke Robotics to market the stabilized weapons drone system to military, defense, homeland security, and para-military customers in coordination with Elbit.

While these royalties are expected to, for the first time, contribute to Duke Robotics’ 2025 revenue, the Company believes that the majority of its revenue for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 will continue to be generated from its IC Drone insulator cleaning activities, which commenced for the 2025 season in May as previously announced.
