(Nasdaq: SPAI) (Safe Pro or the Company), a developer of artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled defense, security, and situational awareness solutions, today announced that former Anduril Senior Business Development Director and Retired U.S. Army Officer of Acquisition, Contracting & Modernization, Brian Mack, has been appointed to Safe Pro’s Strategic Advisory Board (SAB).

Mr. Mack brings a proven record in defense capture, growth strategy, and Army modernization, including a recent role supporting Anduril Industries’ successful capture of the U.S. Army’s $100 million Next Generation Command and Control (NGC2) contract. He also helped build a $2 billion-plus Army pipeline aligned to critical C5ISR mission areas.

Mr. Dan Erdberg, Chairman and CEO of Safe Pro Group Inc. said, “Brian is a proven defense acquisition expert with deep relationships across the U.S. Army contracting and procurement chains, bringing timely acquisition expertise to Safe Pro Group. I look forward to working together with Brian as we continue to execute on our mission of fielding our patented AI to deliver enhanced force protection across the U.S. Army.”

“I am honored to join Safe Pro’s distinguished team of military and business leaders and to help drive the Company’s capture and growth initiatives,” said Mr. Mack. “With the Army’s demand for AI-enabled capabilities continuing to increase, the market opportunity for innovative companies like Safe Pro has never been stronger. I look forward to helping expand the Company’s position in real-time battlefield assessment and supporting solutions that give our warfighters a decisive advantage at the edge.”

Mr. Mack has more than 20 years of leadership, management, and advisory experience spanning defense, government, and emerging technology markets. His background includes senior business development roles at SAIC, a Fortune 500 mission technology integrator serving the defense, space, civilian, and intelligence sectors, and at Silvus Technologies, where he led Army growth strategy focused on tactical networking adoption. He also served in the U.S. Army, including multiple international deployments, and developed a broad acquisition background across program management, contracting, test and evaluation, and requirements development. Mr. Mack holds an MBA from the Naval Postgraduate School.
