At DFA Systems, we believe a global revolution in military affairs is underway. Current conflicts in Ukraine, Gaza, the Red Sea, and Burma reveal technologies that will shape major conflicts of tomorrow. Ukrainian forces employing millions of commercial drones have created standoff zones that neutralize conventional maneuver forces. Non-state actors challenge naval superpowers with low-tech solutions, disrupting global supply chains. Insurgents leverage 3D printing to overcome arms embargoes.
This parallels the 1918-1939 interwar period, when regional conflicts such as the Spanish, Russian, and Chinese civil wars provided fertile proving grounds for new technologies and tactics later adopted in the Second World War. Just as John Moses Browning created the 1911 pistol and M2 machine gun–weapons still in service a century later–DFA Systems is building equally transformative systems for today's battlefield realities.
After decades of industrial offshoring, America faces a strategic vulnerability at the precise moment when conflict with China over the Western Pacific appears increasingly probable. Unlike 1939, we lack the robust industrial base needed for large-scale mobilization.
Fortunately, a new generation of venture capital is supporting founders building the tools and industrial capacity America urgently needs. DFA Systems stands at the forefront of this critical movement.
Drawing on global conflict observations, we've identified these critical insights:
DFA Systems is addressing these challenges with our first product: a low-cost, expendable, modular attack drone with integrated AI and computer vision capabilities designed specifically to overcome hostile electronic warfare environments. Each system is small enough for individual soldiers to carry multiple units alongside standard mission equipment.
This represents just the beginning of our vision to empower small units to execute missions previously requiring battalion or brigade-level resources.
For investors with the foresight to see where warfare is heading, DFA Systems offers not just a compelling opportunity, but a chance to strengthen America's security at a pivotal moment in history.
For those with eyes to see, glimpses of the future of warfare are flickering around the globe. At DFA Systems, we’re preparing.
