Closing the Drone Readiness Gap

Orion Defense & Protection Agency specializes in tactical drone, FPV, and counter-UAS instruction for military units, law enforcement and federal agencies, security teams, and qualified civilians.

ODPA prepares students for a battlespace and a beat increasingly shaped by small unmanned systems. The team operates from a controlled training site at The Ranch, with open Class G airspace, where students get real stick time and scenario-based training that slideshows and simulators cannot replicate.

The company was founded by U.S. military combat veterans who saw firsthand how small unmanned aerial systems are transforming modern warfare and how rapidly that threat is migrating into domestic environments.
