Dominion Dynamics to jointly produce Ukrainian drones in Canada
The companies aim to finalize a deal by early 2027 and plan to train Canadian technicians while sourcing parts from Canadian suppliers.
- On Tuesday, Ottawa-based Dominion Dynamics and Kyiv-based Tencore signed an MoU in Washington to jointly manufacture uncrewed ground vehicles in Canada, combining the Ukrainian company's drone expertise with Dominion's software capabilities.
- Ukraine has requested 20,000 UGVs to support front-line operations including resupply missions and mine-laying, creating massive demand that this partnership directly addresses.
- Assembly will take place at Dominion's Kanata facility, where the company will integrate its AuraNet software into the vehicles; the firms aim to finalize a definitive agreement by the first quarter of 2027.
- Eliot Pence, founder and chief executive of Dominion Dynamics, expects the potential agreement to be worth "tens of billions" of dollars; Tencore must secure an export licence from Kyiv for technology transfer.
- Dominion is currently scouting three facilities in Ontario and Quebec to boost its manufacturing footprint to 450,000 square feet, part of a broader industrial conversion trend supporting defence production capacity.
