NUBURU subsidiary Lyocon wins Asia-Pacific directed-energy counter-drone order

Evidence notes
- NUBURU said its subsidiary Lyocon received an initial order from a tier-one government defence electronics organization in Asia-Pacific for a portable directed-energy laser dazzler system.
- The company framed the award as an entry point into the regional counter-drone market after prototype and production-level validation work.
Company context
NUBURU is a public U.S. defence and industrial technology company that has shifted from blue-laser systems toward a broader security platform spanning directed-energy, counter-UAS, and defence electronics. Its recent strategic relevance comes less from legacy industrial laser identity and more from its expanding defence stack through Lyocon and Tekne-linked transactions.
