It is all about big contracts now, for Aussie anti-drone company.

The CEO of global counter-drone technology company DroneShield [ASX:DRO] says the overall revenue trend for the company will hopefully be much more than the 200% year on year increase it saw last year.

DroneShield designs detection systems that use specialised technology to achieve levels of precision and sensitivity which are not possible with other methods.

The Australian company has developed multilayered pre-eminent drone detection and disruption solutions that protect people, organisations and critical infrastructure from intrusion by drones.

According to Oleg Vornik, CEO of DroneShield, the companies time in the global market and the skill of the Australian technical team around product development has put the business in a unique position.

He told me that interest in their latest product, a mobile detect and defeat solution called DroneSentryX, is a good example.

The new system can detect drones more than two kilometres away and disable them when they reach 300 meters in range, all while on the move.

Vornik said there is no product like this and interest has not only been far greater than he expected, but it has also put the company in a space without competition.

"It's all about big contracts for us now."

"There are a couple of material processes we are involved with that can materially uplift us from where we are into a whole different revenue ballpark."

Also during my interview, he told me:

• They've learned that the middle east is all about relationships and DroneShield has been there long enough to have trusted partners, one of which is very close to rubber-stamping a $60 to $80m deal.

• Airports still needing anti-drone solutions - cargo flights still occurring.

• DroneShield is expecting more near term deals with the Australian Department of Defence DoD, having won three out of three counter-drone Australian defence department orders.

• DroneShield has cracked the US market with a Department of Defence order.

I started my latest chat with Oleg Vornik, discussing whether the oil crisis in the middle east might have a negative effect on DroneShield's business there.
