$ZENA ZenaTech, Inc. announces that a U.S. Presidential Proclamation signed August 13, 2026, imposing Section 232 tariffs on imported drones and components could strengthen the competitive positioning of its U.S.-based drone design and manufacturing subsidiary,
@ZenadroneInc
. The objectives of the proclamation include national security, reducing U.S. dependence on foreign drone manufacturing and supply chains, and rapidly building domestic drone manufacturing capacity. The new policy supports ZenaTech’s U.S.–Taiwan vertical integration strategy by explicitly prioritizing the expansion of domestic manufacturing and trusted-country supply chains.
“For years, the drone industry rewarded whoever could build the most inexpensively offshore, creating a supply chain now recognized as a national security vulnerability. We made a different decision, building our drone manufacturing in the U.S. and developing a vertically integrated, NDAA-compliant supply chain through our operations in Taiwan because we believed defense and critical-infrastructure customers would increasingly demand secure, trusted supply chains,” said
@ShaunPassleyPhD
, ZenaTech CEO. “The new Section 232 tariffs reinforce our strategy and could significantly strengthen ZenaDrone’s competitive position in the U.S. defense market, particularly for our larger ZD 1000 and Counter-UAS defense platforms. We believe this policy shift validates our investments made in U.S. manufacturing and vertical integration, and we intend to move quickly to review the Commerce Department’s onshoring program, evaluating opportunities to further expand domestic manufacturing capacity to capture growing demand across government and commercial markets.”
