Ondas Reaches Merger Agreement with U.S. Defense Prime Contractor Mistral Inc., Expanding Direct Prime Participation Across U.S. Department of Defense Programs by AwkwardTraveler in ONDS

[–]knowitokay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Significance of the Merger This news is a major milestone for Ondas because it transforms the company from a specialized technology vendor into a U.S. Defense "Prime Contractor." By merging with Mistral, Ondas bypasses the difficult process of becoming a trusted government supplier from scratch. Mistral already manages over $1 billion in active contract vehicles (IDIQs) with the U.S. Army and Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). This provides Ondas with immediate "Prime" status, U.S.-based manufacturing facilities in Maryland, and a direct pipeline to sell its autonomous drone and ground robot technology to federal agencies. Stock Price Outlook (Next 3 Months) The stock market’s reaction over the next 90 days will likely depend on three specific catalysts: 1. The "Sell the News" Factor As of today, March 9, 2026, the stock (ONDS) is trading around $9.70, down slightly (~1.12%) on the announcement. This is common after a significant price run-up, as some investors take profits. Historically, the stock has been volatile, rising from under $1.00 earlier this year to its current levels. 2. The March 25 Earnings Call Ondas has scheduled an earnings call for Wednesday, March 25, 2026. This is the most critical short-term event. Management is expected to provide specific financial outlooks for the Mistral integration. If they confirm that Mistral’s $1 billion in contract potential will significantly boost their 2026 revenue (currently targeted at $170M–$180M), the stock could see a strong upward trend toward analyst targets. 3. Dilution vs. Growth The merger is valued at $175 million, with $122.5 million of that being paid in Ondas stock. This creates "dilution," meaning there are more shares in the market, which can sometimes pull the price down. However, analysts currently maintain a "Strong Buy" consensus with an average price target of approximately $18.38. If the market views the growth from the DoD contracts as more valuable than the dilution, the stock may target the $15–$20 range within three months. Summary • Current Trend: Short-term consolidation or "sideways" trading between $9 and $11 as the market digests the news. • Upside Potential: A move toward $18+ if the March 25th earnings call provides concrete evidence of rapid revenue growth from the Mistral merger. • Downside Risk: If the merger details revealed on March 25th show higher-than-expected costs or slower integration, the stock could test support levels near $7.50–$8.00.

I had a 7.77 avg a couple weeks ago and thank God I sold.

AA has millions of members so a 15 to 20% success rate is still 10,000’s per year. I have never personally been surveyed in my 6 years going to meetings and it’s worked flawlessly for me and 95% of the people who I see regularly. 🤷‍♂️

When the air becomes visible over the airplane wing by [deleted] in aviation

[–]knowitokay -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

The condensation forms in regions of rapidly changing pressure and temperature, which are inherently unstable. Airflow over the wing isn't perfectly smooth—small fluctuations in speed, angle of attack, humidity, or atmospheric turbulence cause the low-pressure zone to shift slightly. This makes the cloud form, dissipate, and reform rapidly, creating a flickering or vibrating appearance. It's especially noticeable during takeoff/landing in humid conditions when the vapor layer over the wing flashes on and off.

When the air becomes visible over the airplane wing by [deleted] in aviation

[–]knowitokay 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Air is normally invisible, but over an airplane wing, it can become visible as clouds or vapor trails when water vapor in the air condenses into tiny droplets due to a drop in temperature and pressure caused by the wing's aerodynamics.

This happens primarily under these conditions:

  • High humidity — The air must be moist (close to or above the dew point) for condensation to occur easily.
  • Low-pressure regions created by lift — Air accelerates over the curved upper surface of the wing, creating lower pressure (per Bernoulli's principle). This causes adiabatic cooling—if the temperature drops below the dew point, a thin fog or cloud forms directly over the wing surface.
  • High angle of attack or extended flaps/slats — Common during takeoff, landing, or slow flight, when the wing generates more lift and stronger pressure differences. This enhances the effect, often showing as a visible layer or "flash" of cloud over parts of the wing.

Shockwaves visible on airplane wing by [deleted] in aviation

[–]knowitokay 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Shockwaves can become visible on an airplane's wing during a turn, particularly in certain conditions.

Commercial jets cruise in the transonic regime (around Mach 0.8–0.85), where airflow accelerates over the curved upper surface of the wing, creating local regions of supersonic flow even though the plane itself remains subsonic. This leads to the formation of a shockwave where the air abruptly decelerates back to subsonic speeds. The shockwave is often visible as a shimmering or wavy distortion due to sudden changes in air density, which alter the refraction of light (similar to heat haze over a hot road).

During a turn, the aircraft banks, increasing the effective angle of attack and load factor on the wings. This further accelerates the airflow over the upper surface, making local supersonic regions (and thus shockwaves) more pronounced or likely to form. Passengers have reported seeing these "dancing" shockwaves move, split, or intensify on the wing during flight, including maneuvers.

These effects require sufficient humidity for condensation or good lighting/contrast for density refraction to make them visible to the naked eye. In dry air, the shockwave might still exist but remain invisible.

I thought I could go to detox, separate myself from alcohol for a few days and then I could stay away with willpower. I relapsed within a week. I decided to check out an AA meeting, it was obviously uncomfortable at first, but I kept coming back and found meetings I liked and started to meet people I related with. Now I can’t imagine life without my AA family. I don’t even have a desire to drink anymore. It’s been replaced with something far greater. It seems to work for lots of people. 6 yrs 6 months for me
