Parrot, a European leader in professional micro-UAVs, is expanding its global distribution network through multiple new agreements with specialized defence and security distributors in Poland (Allies Incorporated), Slovenia, Croatia and Montenegro (Panna Plus) Czechia and Slovakia (Pramacom-HT), Romania (MarcTel) and the Philippines (Advance Homeland Defense Incorporated).
These partnerships will strengthen Parrot’s local presence across Central and Eastern Europe and South-East Asia, supporting growing demand for its sovereign ANAFI UKR ISR micro-UAV range, which combines secure European design, edge AI capabilities and advanced ISR mission software for defence, public safety & government agencies.
Strengthening a local, defence-focused distribution strategy
With these new agreements, Parrot continues to execute its strategy of working with experienced local partners that have deep relationships with end-users and a strong understanding of national operational, regulatory and security requirements.
Under the terms of the distribution arrangements, Allies Incorporated, Panna Plus, Pramacom-HT, MarcTel and Advance Homeland Defense Incorporated will market, sell and support Parrot’s professional micro-UAV product line – including ANAFI UKR – to defence, public safety and other government customers in their respective territories. The partners will provide frontline users with localized pre-sales support, demonstrations, training, implementation, program management and after-sales services, ensuring reliable deployment and sustainment of Parrot systems across a wide range of missions.
These distributors bring deep local expertise in their respective defence and security ecosystems – from Central and Eastern Europe to the Asia-Pacific region – with long-standing relationships across government, defence forces and public safety stakeholders, and a proven ability to support complex, mission-critical capability programs.
« In defence and public safety markets, success depends not only on technology but also on strong local partnerships,” said Chris Roberts, Senior Vice President at Parrot. “By combining our sovereign, cyber-secure ANAFI UKR tactical ISR micro-UAV system with distributors that understand their national ecosystems and stay close to operational users, we can deploy capabilities faster, support customers over the full lifecycle of their programmes, and accelerate our growth from Central and Eastern Europe to the Asia-Pacific region ».
A scalable channel model for future growth
The addition of Allies Incorporated, Panna Plus, Pramacom-HT, MarcTel and Advance Homeland Defense Incorporated strengthens Parrot’s commitment to a scalable, partner-driven model for international growth in defence and public safety markets.
By combining a sovereign, European-designed micro-UAV portfolio with trusted local distributors, Parrot is building a resilient network capable of supporting national modernization priorities, interoperability requirements and long-term sustainment needs.
Supporting mission-critical operations with secure European-designed micro-UAVs
ANAFI UKR has been engineered for a wide spectrum of defence and public safety missions, from tactical reconnaissance and border surveillance to critical infrastructure protection, disaster response and law-enforcement operations.
As Parrot’s latest-generation professional micro-UAV system, ANAFI UKR offers:
• Secure, resilient communications and data management suited to contested electromagnetic environments
• AI-enabled onboard processing for advanced video analytics, target detection and assisted decision-making at the edge
• High-performance EO/IR payloads integrated with mission software to optimise image exploitation and reporting
• Proven robustness and reliability for day/night missions in demanding weather conditions
• A low-signature, backpack-portable airframe for dismounted units
• Very fast set-up and launch, enabling immediate use in time-critical scenarios
Through its growing network of specialized distributors, Parrot brings ANAFI UKR closer to end-users, coupling these capabilities with in-country training, maintenance, upgrades and long-term support.
« ANAFI UKR has been designed with frontline operators in mind,” added Chris Roberts. “Its edge AI processing, secure communications and advanced ISR mission software give tactical teams faster access to exploitable intelligence, even in contested electromagnetic environments. Through our new distribution partners, these capabilities are now available with local training, integration and sustainment support. »
