Precision Technic Defence Group Celebrates Its 40th Anniversary
Wednesday, January 29th, 2025
In 2025, Precision Technic Defence Group proudly marks its 40th anniversary, celebrating four decades of innovation, growth, and an uncompromising commitment to global security. From its Danish beginnings in 1985 to its expansive global presence today, the company has evolved into a trusted leader in defence and security solutions.
Strategic expansion and global reach
The story of Precision Technic Defence Group began in 1985 in Rødovre, Denmark, when founder Thomas Dresler established Precision Technic Nordic. Starting with three core product groups – surveying equipment, marine lanterns, and thermography – the company quickly made its mark by contributing to major Scandinavian infrastructure projects such as the Great Belt Bridge and the Øresund Bridge.
A turning point came in 2012, with a strategic focus on thermography, the establishment of Precision Technic Defence A/S near Aalborg, and Jeppe Müller joining the leadership team.This shift marked the company’s transformation into a defence and security industry specialist and from 2015 onward, the company established subsidiaries in Germany, Australia, the United Kingdom, France, Poland, Sweden, and the United States.
“To witness the company, I founded, grow into a global leader in the defence and security industry is extremely rewarding, and I am deeply proud of everyone who has contributed to the company’s remarkable growth and success”, says founder Thomas Dresler. “It is a privilege to see Precision Technic Defence Group develop and expand to meet ever-changing market needs, and I am truly grateful for our clients’ and partners’ continued trust in us.”
Driving success through collaboration
Today, Precision Technic Defence’s solutions are deployed by governments, armed forces, and security agencies worldwide. The company’s success is built on a team of highly skilled employees with extensive experience from the military or law enforcement, providing them with a deep understanding of the industry, and the solutions it requires. Equally important are the company’s strong partnerships, enabling Precision Technic Defence Group to deliver tailored solutions that meet even the most complex demands. Together, the synergy between experienced professionals and innovative partnerships drives the company’s ability to deliver superior solutions on a global scale.
New headquarters – a new era
Coinciding with its 40th anniversary, Precision Technic Defence group inaugurated a new 4,400-square-metres headquarters in Denmark in September 2024. The facility includes office spaces, warehouse facilities, and a state-of-the-art electronics workshop operated by Precision Services. The new headquarters marks a new era of innovation and operational excellence, enabling Precision Technic Defence Group to further enhance its support for clients worldwide and strengthen its role as a global leader in defence and security solutions.
Looking to the future
As the world faces increasingly complex challenges, Precision Technic Defence Group remains committed to creating safe and stable societies. “For decades, we have focused on empowering those who protect us”, says Jeppe Müller, Co-owner and Chairman of the Board. “The core of our mission is still to safeguard people and societies across the globe, offering us a profound sense of purpose that reflects our deeply held value of serving our country.”
A year of celebration
Throughout 2025, we look forward to celebrating our 40th anniversary with events that highlight this significant milestone. From hosting special events at trade fairs around the globe with our partners and clients to celebrating with our staff, we aim to recognise the collective efforts that have shaped our success over the past four decades.

Friday, January 24th, 2025Vienna, 23 January 2025 – Schiebel has been awarded another multi-year service contract for the CAMCOPTER® S-100 Unmanned Air System (UAS) with the European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA). The contract is for service provision with Remotely Piloted Aircraft Services (RPAS) for supporting EU member states in emission monitoring and maritime surveillance operations.
For the third time in a row, Schiebel has been awarded a tender with EMSA. In 2018, Schiebel signed its first contract to support European coast guards and maritime authorities, followed by a second contract in 2021. The now newly awarded contract spans for up to four years – two fixed years with an option for an additional two years.
Since 2018, the S-100 has conducted over 1780 deployment days for EMSA and operated across Europe, in Croatia, France, Finland, Denmark, Spain, Estonia, Romania, Lithuania, Iceland, Germany and Belgium. Stationed either on land or on ships, the S-100 performs general night and day maritime surveillance, search and rescue operations and oil spill detection, as well as monitoring of sulphur content of ships’ emissions to ensure compliance with the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) limits.
The CAMCOPTER® S-100 can carry multiple payloads with a combined weight of up to 50 kg. Due to its unique and proven nature, and its ability to fly slowly and hover, it is ideally suited for maritime operations.
“We have been supporting European maritime authorities for almost six years now and are extremely proud to continue our success story with EMSA. It proves once again, that the availability and reliability of the S-100 is unrivalled,” said Neil Hunter, Head of Global Sales for Schiebel.

INVISIO Acquires Product Line from Ultra PCS to Further Enhance its Integration Capabilities of the Modern Soldier System
Wednesday, January 22nd, 2025INVISIO acquires UK company Ultra PCS’s UltraLYNX™ product line, which enables seamless integration of devices from different suppliers, creating an ecosystem within the modern soldier system. A number of employees at Ultra PCS will join INVISIO as part of the USD 3,5 million transaction.
UltraLYNX™ software-defined hubs enable seamless integration of devices from different suppliers, including those not originally designed to work together. The product line creates an ecosystem that provides audio, data connectivity and power, reducing the cognitive and physical burden on users.
This strategic acquisition will enhance INVISIO’s ability to deliver fully integrated tactical body-worn systems capable of handling audio, power and data, along with leading-edge computing power. It will allow INVISIO to provide a seamless and robust plug-and-play communication system that meets the evolving needs of modern military and defense operations.
The UltraLYNX™ product will be seamlessly integrated into the INVISIO ecosystem, acting as a catalyst for the development of future innovative and cutting-edge products.
INVISIO facilitates the modern soldier system
The modern soldier system is a complex network of devices—radios, weapon sights, navigation tools and sensors—sourced from different suppliers with unique standards. These devices must share data, audio and power within a unified ecosystem.
Integration is challenging due to differing protocols and power demands and the need for real-time communication. UltraLYNX™ simplifies this process by harmonizing protocols, managing power and enabling seamless device interoperability. As a result, soldiers can focus on their mission without being burdened by complex setup requirements and incompatible equipment.
The deal is completed today and UltraLYNX™ will be fully incorporated under the INVISIO brand.
Lars Højgård Hansen, INVISIO CEO, commented: “This acquisition aligns with our strategic vision to expand and enhance our product offerings and provide our customers with cutting-edge solutions that improve operational efficiency and effectiveness. The UltraLYNX product line will add significant capabilities to our already market leading soldier systems.
The acquisition strengthens INVISIO’s position in our markets, which are undergoing a digital transformation. We expect, after the initial integration, that the product line will contribute significantly to INVISIOs revenues in 2026 and onwards.”
