Volatus Aerospace, a drone specialist for reconnaissance and cargo transport, announced an order from a NATO country overnight. The Company delivered a drone system for short-range reconnaissance, valued at USD 1.85 million. Equipped with thermal imaging cameras and other visual sensors, the unmanned aerial vehicles can be deployed in all weather conditions and at any time of day or night. "This delivery underscores our ability to provide innovative and mission-ready technologies to support the defense operations of our allies," said Glen Lynch, Chief Executive Officer of Volatus Aerospace. "As global conflicts evolve, the need for agile, battle-tested ISR capabilities is growing." The contract is particularly significant for Volatus Aerospace because it highlights the Company's ability to meet the growing demands of the expanding defense market for drones and unmanned aerial systems with its solutions.

    Volatus Aerospace supplies NATO – Civilian solutions are also available

    Volatus Aerospace offers solutions for both civilian and military drone applications. In addition to inspecting bridges and pipelines, monitoring combat zones and borders is also playing an increasingly important role. Volatus Aerospace also offers transport drones. These drones can deliver urgently needed civilian goods to their destinations or help provide supplies in difficult situations in the field. The commercial drone market has experienced strong growth in recent years. This was also due to standardized regulations. Volatus Aerospace has worked with other aviation companies to promote uniform standards and is now reaping the benefits – the order from a NATO country demonstrates that Volatus products are compatible with existing systems.

    Market for drones to grow rapidly from 2025 – Volatus is perfectly positioned

    According to experts at Research and Markets, the market for commercial drones is expected to grow from USD 41.894 billion to USD 84.26 billion between 2025 and 2030 alone. This corresponds to an annual growth of around 15%. Just last week, Volatus Aerospace announced an order for professional drone training worth a total of USD 560,000, also for the military of a NATO country. Both orders demonstrate that Volatus Aerospace is a serious provider of modern drone systems and related services.

    The share price has already risen dynamically in recent weeks. However, analysts consider the current valuation to be in line with the business performance: The Company, which carried out 4,000 surveillance and 700 transport flights and trained 3,000 drone pilots in 2024, is reporting solid revenue and, according to management, has a well-filled order pipeline. Analysts at Ventum Capital Markets see the Company in the black with a P/E ratio of 24 by 2027 – an attractive valuation for a growth company that has proven itself competitive in a billion-dollar market.

    Is It Time to Sell Gerresheimer? Aerospace and Gold Contenders Step Into the Spotlight: OHB and Lahontan Gold in Focus

    A major coup for OHB. Germany's space industry hopeful has secured a contract worth billions. Could this also give the share price another boost? Even its inclusion in the SDAX failed to halt the sharp correction. The gold price is currently performing strongly once again. As such, the timing for Lahontan Gold shares could hardly be better. The exploration company is currently taking the final steps toward becoming a producer. The mine is set to be built in the US state of Nevada next year. The resource estimate was recently raised to 2.4 million ounces, and management sees plenty more potential. Is the rally at Gerresheimer, up over 50%, now coming to an end? The group, battered by profit warnings, costly takeovers and accounting issues, is working on a comeback. Yet analysts are advising "Sell".

    On the night of August 5, 2026, the quick action of a bus driver helped avert a catastrophe. The drone attack ushered in a new era of threats. The foiled attack on Leipzig/Halle Airport involving an explosive-laden drone is no longer an isolated incident. This escalation, which is now attracting attention at the highest levels of the security establishment, is putting a multibillion-dollar market for effective counter-drone solutions and autonomous weapons systems firmly in the spotlight. For investors, the question is who will benefit most from this "drone supercycle". We take a closer look at three promising candidates: Rheinmetall, Volatus Aerospace and Lockheed Martin.

    When a vehicle manufacturer becomes a defence contractor, a raw materials developer provides the key to green steel production, and a naval group reports record orders, a realignment of German industry is taking shape. Volkswagen is on the brink of its most profound transformation and is turning to the defence sector as a lifeline. At the same time, the race for strategic resources is intensifying. Without decarbonized steel, there can be no modern defence, and this steel requires specific grades of iron ore. This is precisely where Strategic Resources comes in. While thyssenkrupp Marine Systems is benefiting from full order books, a new value chain is emerging. Today, we take a closer look at the shares of Volkswagen, Strategic Resources and TKMS.
