Visionary Machines has signed an agreement appointing IMREX as its authorised sales representative in Singapore, formalised during a ceremony on the Australia Pavilion at Singapore Airshow 2026.

The partnership marks Visionary Machines’ first step in a broader regional strategy to establish an in country sales network across Asia Pacific, addressing surging demand globally for technologies that counter rapidly evolving drone threats.

“Appointing IMREX in Singapore is a pivotal milestone in our Asia–Pacific strategy,” said Sonny Foster, Chief Executive Officer, Visionary Machines. “Their track record with leading global primes and deep customer relationships will accelerate delivery of our counter‑drone capability to Singapore’s defence and security community.”

 

“We’re pleased to represent Visionary Machines in Singapore,” said Spencer Ong, President and Owner of IMREX Pte Ltd. “Pandion Sentinel’s unique counter drone situational awareness sensing is an important addition to our portfolio and highly relevant to customers confronting increasingly sophisticated small Group 1 and Group 2 drone threats.”

Across Asia and the world, the rapid increase in availability, affordability and sophistication of drones has accelerated the threat to defence forces, critical infrastructure and public safety. Adversaries are adapting to evade legacy detection methods by reducing RF emissions and visual signatures, increasing autonomy levels, and using swarming and attack tactics that render many traditional counter drone approaches less effective.

Visionary Machines’ Pandion Sentinel delivers “detect without being detected” performance — providing multi‑domain detection, tracking, classification and targeting of drones across air, land and sea, The system is fully passive with no detectable emissions, integrates with third‑party C2 and effector systems, and provides true measured telemetry for precise targeting.

“Visionary Machines will continue to expand its representative network to meet customer needs while maintaining our lean, scalable commercial footprint” said Nick Gibbs, Visionary Machines Chief Operating Officer.
