“We couldn’t be more excited to support the UADAMAGE team. Mine warfare has renewed its importance on the modern battlefield, while vast areas of land worldwide remain contaminated by explosive remnants of past conflicts, and future wars threaten to compound this humanitarian challenge,” said Hans Braunfisch on LinkedIn, the general partner of Pravo Ventures.
While the financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, Pravo Ventures typically targets pre-seed and seed investments, writing checks up to $500,000. Ondas Capital, a $150 million platform launched in September 2025 by US based Ondas Inc., focuses on dual-use products from Ukraine and Europe
Beyond financing, Ondas Capital connects UADamage with a broader ecosystem of autonomous systems and defense technologies, as it is the investment and strategic engagement platform of Ondas Inc.
On the contrary, Pravo Ventures brings a strong Washington, D.C. network across policy and legislative circles, helping align its strategy with evolving US national security priorities, market needs, and emerging opportunities.
