Electro Optic Systems (EOS) has signed a strategic partnership agreement with ROKETSAN to collaborate on future opportunities involving integrated defence capabilities in selected markets.
Announced at the World Defense Show on 10 February, the agreement establishes a framework for EOS and ROKETSAN to collaborate in responding to customer requirements as they arise.
EOS brings established counter-drone capability spanning kinetic and high-energy laser effectors. In 2025, EOS secured the world’s first export contract for a 100-kilowatt-class high-energy laser weapon with the Netherlands, marking a significant milestone in the deployment of laser-based counter-drone capability. EOS has also entered into a conditional high-energy laser contract with a customer in the Republic of Korea, reflecting growing international demand for high-energy laser solutions.
The agreement supports collaboration in selected markets jointly identified by both companies, positioning EOS and Roketsan to pursue opportunities where integrated counter-drone and force protection solutions are required.
EOS has seen growing international demand for high-energy laser capability, and this agreement reflects how we are positioning to respond to that demand,” said Dr Andreas Schwer, Chief Executive Officer, EOS. “Working with Roketsan gives us a practical pathway to engage in opportunities where integration and local industrial participation are important.”
“Our collaboration with EOS is a key factor in enhancing our combat-proven directed energy solutions for national and international users by providing operational effectiveness and mission success”, said Murat İkinci, CEO of ROKETSAN.
