**Draganfly Drones Deployed with Search and Rescue Sweden**

**SASKATOON, SK - January 13, 2026** — Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO; CSE: DPRO; FSE: 3U8A) ("Draganfly" or the "Company"), an award-winning, industry-leading drone solutions and systems developer, is pleased to announce the deployment of Draganfly drones integrated with Smith Myers, ARTEMIS Mobile Phone Detection & Location Systems (MPDLS) for search and rescue operations.

Search and Rescue Sweden, one of Europe's foremost search-and-rescue (SAR) organizations, will deploy Draganfly UAS platforms outfitted with Smith Myers ARTEMIS, specifically engineered for the SAR market, to provide cost-effective, high-performance aerial support for missing-person recoveries, wilderness rescues, police support missions, and other critical public-safety tasks.

The innovative ARTEMIS MPDLS product line provides a maximum range of 35KM while supporting up to 48 cellular bands. Their modular nature and varying form factor scales effectively across the Draganfly Apex & Commander 3XL multi-mission UAS, allowing rapid deployment of the multiple ARTEMIS solutions varying in weight from 0.52 kg to 10 kg. The Smith Myers Payloads selected are SAR Sweden's preferred sensors, designed to meet European SAR requirements for reliability, detection range, and location accuracy.

By enabling Smith Myers payload integration across multiple Draganfly platforms, the integration and partnership provides flexibility: lighter, more mobile APEX drones with the small payload for rapid deployment and reconnaissance; and Commander 3XL drones with the heavier payload for long-endurance missions requiring higher sensor performance and heavier load capacity.

In recent weeks, combined teams from Draganfly, Smith Myers and SAR Sweden have conducted joint flight testing and validation at Draganfly's flight facility. These efforts validated:

● Mechanical and software integration of ARTEMIS payloads on both APEX and Commander 3XL airframes.

● Stable flight performance with the ARTEMIS T-U on 3XL in harsh weather conditions.

● End-to-end SAR mission workflows, including detection, localization, mapping, data relay, and ground-team communication coordination

Testing confirmed that the integrated Draganfly–Smith Myers solution meets or exceeds operational requirements for SAR missions in demanding environments.

"After our joint testing with Draganfly and Smith Myers, we are confident these systems will strengthen how we respond to missing-person and wilderness rescue operations across Sweden. The performance, particularly in challenging weather, exceeded expectations, and the flexibility offered by multiple payload and drone configurations will be a major asset to our teams," said Richard Öesterlindh, Head of Development, SAR Sweden.

Recent regulatory changes across Sweden and other European jurisdictions have limited the use of certain aerial platforms for public-safety missions. As a result, SAR Sweden required a fully compliant, high-reliability UAV solution capable of delivering the performance, range, and sensor capability necessary for national search-and-rescue operations.

This partnership provides SAR Sweden with a versatile, scalable aerial capability built around Draganfly's APEX and Commander 3XL platforms, integrated with Smith Myers SAR payloads. Together, these systems offer a force multiplier for responders: faster deployment, wider search-area coverage, enhanced detection accuracy, and significantly reduced mission costs compared to traditional helicopter-based operations.

Additionally, Smith Myers payloads will be supported across Draganfly's full UAV platform lineup, expanding availability for police, military, fire services, and emergency-response organizations seeking a proven, mission-ready solution across diverse operational environments.

"Completing the full integration of ARTEMIS MPDLS across several Draganfly UAS platforms demonstrates how quickly we can deliver robust, operational capability into the uncrewed space. Starting with SAR missions alongside SAR Sweden, these systems are now positioned to support a wide range of demanding operational roles. It's an important milestone for both companies and for the customers we serve," said Andrew Munro, Managing Director of Smith Myers. "We are proud to join forces with SAR Sweden and Smith Myers to deliver next-generation aerial SAR capabilities. Our UAV platforms, combined with the Smith Myers payload architecture, offer exceptional flexibility and mission readiness. This collaboration reinforces Draganfly's commitment to supporting organizations dedicated to saving lives," said Cameron Chell, CEO, Draganfly.
