xReality Wins First US Marine Corps Counter-Drone Order

xReality (ASX:XRG) Group announced that its wholly owned U.S. subsidiary, Operator XR LLC, has secured its first order from the United States Marine Corps, which is also the first sale of its OP-2 Interceptor counter-drone training system.

The order covers OP-2 Interceptor systems configured for the end user's counter-drone training requirements, including software licences, integrated training hardware and 12 months of support services. Delivery is scheduled for Q2 FY27. OP-2 Interceptor is built on the OP-2 portable virtual reality training platform and lets users rehearse counter-UAS tactics against a configurable library of drone threats. The order follows a period of demonstrations and evaluations with the Marine Corps across numerous units. It adds the Marine Corps to Operator XR's existing U.S. military customers, which include the US Air Force, US Space Force and US Army National Guard. The board considers the announcement material because of the strategic significance of the entry into the Marine Corps and the first sale of OP-2 Interceptor.

The company states that the contract value is not material to XRG and does not disclose it. The release does not state order quantities or any follow-on commitments.
