KULR Secures Over $1 Million in Battery Orders for Drone Dominance Program

HOUSTON, Oct. 01, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- KULR Technology Group, Inc. has secured over $1 million in battery purchase orders for its high-performance systems, supporting the U.S. Department of War’s Drone Dominance Program. The company is set to begin production deliveries in October 2026, with all shipments expected to be completed by the end of November 2026. This marks a significant step in KULR’s expansion within the defense drone market and provides near-term revenue visibility.

The Drone Dominance Program, a $1.1 billion, multi-phase initiative by the U.S. Department of War, aims to accelerate the procurement and fielding of small unmanned aerial systems. KULR’s position at the battery-system level is seen as a strategic opportunity to support increasing production volumes as participating platforms advance through the program.

These purchase orders also represent an important validation of KULR’s investment in Forge 2, its new manufacturing facility in Houston, Texas. Forge 2 is designed to increase KULR’s capacity to support defense drones and other autonomous platforms, positioning the company as a key domestic supplier of battery systems that meet NDAA requirements. The first DoW compliance deadline is expected to approach in 2027.

Rising demand for KULR’s high-performance battery systems reflects the accelerating U.S. defense investment in next-generation unmanned systems, where power, reliability, safety, and performance are mission-critical. KULR’s technology is engineered to meet these demanding requirements across advanced UAS platforms.

The company’s Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2026, discloses that these forward-looking statements are based on information available at this time. KULR expects to continue its focus on execution and delivery, leveraging its advanced battery architecture, thermal management, safety engineering, battery management systems, and power electronics to serve space and defense, drones and electric aviation, AI data-center backup, robotics, and Energy-as-a-Service markets.

These production orders also highlight KULR’s ability to move defense programs into production, demonstrating the company’s capability to meet the demands of the U.S. Department of War. The successful execution of these orders is expected to provide KULR with a strong foundation for future growth and expansion within the defense sector.

The Drone Dominance Program is a critical initiative aimed at accelerating the development and deployment of small unmanned aerial systems. KULR’s involvement in this program underscores its commitment to supporting the evolving needs of the U.S. military and defense industry. As the company transitions from qualification to scaled production, it is well-positioned to meet the increasing demands of defense programs and support the broader mission-critical applications.

These purchase orders and the associated production deliveries are expected to provide KULR with a significant revenue boost, while also validating its investment in Forge 2 and its manufacturing capabilities. The company’s focus on execution and delivery is expected to position it as a key supplier in the defense drone market, supporting the growing demand for advanced battery systems that meet the stringent requirements of the U.S. Department of War.
