ZenaTech has moved its ZenaDrone Interceptor P-1 into the testing phase, advancing the company’s broader push into counter-UAS technology. The platform is described as a low-cost, VTOL autonomous interceptor designed to strengthen ZenaTech’s integrated defense system portfolio.

The latest update signals progress from development into hands-on validation, with the company saying it plans to expand the testing program through 2026. That timeline points to a longer runway for refining the aircraft and preparing it for future operational demonstrations.

ZenaTech also indicated that customer evaluations are part of the next stages as work continues on the Interceptor P-1. For the company, the testing phase is an important step in showing how the drone could fit into a wider counter-drone offering rather than standing alone as a single product.

Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, ZenaTech is positioning the Interceptor P-1 as part of a growing defense and autonomous systems strategy. While further technical details were not outlined in the trimmed release, the company said more updates are expected as development and testing continue.
