Draganfly CEO Cameron Chell to Appear on Fox Business' Making Money with Charles Payne to Discuss Iran Conflict and the Strategic Role of Drone Warfare
New York, NY, April 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ:DPRO, CSE:DPRO, FSE: 3U8A)) ("Draganfly" or the "Company"), an award-winning, industry-leading developer of drone solutions and systems, today announced that its Chief Executive Officer, Cameron Chell, is scheduled to appear on Fox Business' Making Money with Charles Payne on Friday, April 10, 2026 during the 2:00 p.m. ET hour.
Mr. Chell has been invited to provide expert commentary on the Iran conflict and the rapidly evolving role of drone technology in modern warfare, reinforcing Draganfly's position as a recognized global authority on unmanned systems and next-generation defense innovation.
Mr. Chell's upcoming appearance on one of America's most-watched news programs highlights the increasing demand for informed, real-time expertise on drone warfare and its geopolitical implications.
During the segment, Mr. Chell is expected to address:
- How drones are reshaping the geopolitical and global defense landscape
- The strategic implications of drone warfare on U.S. military doctrine and deterrence
- The importance of scalable, rapidly deployable drone technologies
"Drone warfare is no longer theoretical, it is actively reshaping modern conflict and politics," said Cameron Chell, Chief Executive Officer of Draganfly. "What we are seeing in the Iran theater highlights the urgent need for scalable, cost-effective, and adaptable unmanned systems that can meet evolving threats."
As modern conflicts increasingly rely on unmanned systems, drone technologies are becoming central to U.S. and allied defense strategies. Key themes expected to be discussed include:
- Drones as force multipliers across reconnaissance, logistics, and tactical operations
- The importance of domestic manufacturing and secure supply chains
- The speed and scale of innovation as a defining factor in future conflict outcomes
Draganfly believes its platform is well-positioned to support these evolving requirements with proven, mission-ready technologies.
Against the backdrop of increasing global defense spending and the accelerated adoption of unmanned systems, companies operating at the intersection of autonomy, ISR, and tactical drone deployment are experiencing heightened strategic relevance. Draganfly believes its long-standing operating history, established government relationships, and strong balance sheet position the Company to participate meaningfully in these expanding market opportunities.
"Being invited to contribute to this national conversation reflects both the urgency and importance of drone innovation in today's security environment," added Mr. Chell. "Draganfly is focused on delivering mission-critical technologies that align with the needs of modern defense and public safety organizations."
