# DHS Prepares Los Angeles Olympics Counter-UAS

DHS is preparing security technology and counter-uncrewed aircraft systems (counter-UAS) capabilities for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, drawing on lessons from the FIFA World Cup. The effort emphasizes coordination across agencies, interoperable data, and affordable drone detection and mitigation. DHS’s counter-UAS effort is valued at $1.5 billion, and approximately $250 million in fiscal 2027 funding is planned to expand state and local capacity. The signal identifies no open solicitation or procurement contact.

- Anduril, Booz Allen, and GDIT are identified as awardees in the broader counter-UAS effort; firms should assess how their capabilities align with affordable mitigation, detection, and interagency data interoperability needs.
- The planned FY2027 funding points to potential state and local demand for drone detection and mitigation capacity, although no specific solicitation is currently identified.
- Contractors can use the preparation timeline for the 2028 Games to position relevant capabilities and identify opportunities to support government coordination and local readiness.
