AI Drones Dropping Mines As Minefields Return to Europe, Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SPAI) Delivers Scalable AI Drone Tech to Detect the Old and New Threat

  • Five European countries plan to withdraw from the Ottawa Convention, raising concerns over the renewed use of land mines.
  • Ukraine still holds over 3 million antipersonnel mines and has signaled its intent to use them against Russian forces.
  • Safe Pro Group’s SpotlightAI(TM) software analyzes drone imagery to detect over 150 types of mines and unexploded ordnance (“UXO”).
  • Built on 1.6+ million images from real-world conflict zones including Ukraine, the system has already identified 28,000 explosive threats.
  • Safe Pro also delivers mission-critical drone services and manufactures U.S.-made ballistic protective gear.
  • The company is a singular company positioned to meet the rising need for scalable mine detection and field protection solutions.

The Cold War-era threat of land mines is resurfacing in Europe with a new layer, dropping mines from AI Drones. According to a recent New York Times report, five NATO-aligned countries – Poland, Finland, and the three Baltic States – have taken steps to withdraw from the Ottawa Convention, a landmark treaty banning antipersonnel mines (https://ibn.fm/0324y). Ukraine, under pressure from Russia’s entrenched positions and mine-heavy defenses and remote drone mining, has also announced its exit.

While these countries cite security needs following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, critics argue the move will mostly endanger civilians. Antipersonnel mines, which once littered Europe’s borders, indiscriminately kill long after conflicts end. The International Committee of the Red Cross estimates that 80% of mine casualties are civilians, many of them children.

Roughly 60 countries are still affected by UXO contamination. In Ukraine alone, the World Bank estimates over $30 billion will be required to clear more than 17 million hectares of mine-contaminated land. Safe Pro is already engaged in the fight to protect Ukraine’s war-ravaged forests and agricultural land and is honored to be featured in a recent investigative piece by Grist Magazine (https://ibn.fm/NDwk5).

Unlike the other countries that have announced their exit from the treaty, which mostly destroyed their stocks of anti-personnel mines, Ukraine still has a large stockpile of more than three million mines. The situation underscores the demand for AI-based solutions that can process high volumes of imagery and deliver accurate, actionable results.

Safe Pro Group (NASDAQ: SPAI), an emerging provider of AI-powered security and threat detection solutions, has a unique patented capability to provide a comprehensive solution to this issue. The company’s SpotlightAI(TM) platform uses artificial intelligence to detect mines and unexploded ordnance (“UXO”) in real time. Trained on more than 1.6 million images from conflict zones such as Ukraine, covering an area roughly the size of Manhattan, the software has already helped identify more than 28,000 threats.

The platform analyzes drone-captured imagery and can detect over 150 types of explosive threats. It offers a scalable alternative to traditional human-based detection methods, which are slower and often dangerous. SpotlightAI(TM) operates both via a cloud-based ecosystem hosted on Amazon Web Services (“AWS”) and through a local version, OnSite, for real-time field deployment.

Safe Pro Group’s business spans three key domains: software, drone services, and ballistic protection. Its Airborne Response unit delivers mission-critical drone operations to industries including telecom, utilities, and public safety. The drones can be rapidly deployed for emergency response or infrastructure inspections and feed data back into the SpotlightAI(TM) system for analysis.

Meanwhile, Safe-Pro USA, another division, manufactures ballistic gear ranging from body armor to bomb blankets and explosive ordnance disposal (“EOD”) suits. These products are made in the U.S. and meet NATO and U.S. military specifications. As a HUBZone-certified small business, Safe-Pro USA qualifies for a range of federal procurement programs and grants.

The defense and public safety sector is expected to grow substantially, particularly in AI-driven intelligence and drone integration. Safe Pro estimates the global market for such solutions is worth at least $15 billion. By combining data-driven software, drone operations and tactical hardware, the company aims to meet the needs of a rapidly evolving security landscape.

Investors looking for emerging opportunities at the intersection of defense tech utilizing AI and drones and humanitarian solutions may find Safe Pro’s model compelling. As warfighting evolves and old threats return in new forms, the demand for smart, field-tested detection tools is only likely to rise.
