Three ASX defence stocks tied to the counter-drone boom: EOS, DRO and AVA

AI Market Summary
News highlights strong counterdrone-driven momentum across select ASX defence names but with sharply divergent fundamentals: EOS reports surging revenue, a record order book and upgraded guidance supported by a large UAE counterdrone order; DroneShield shows rapid growth yet faces ASIC scrutiny and governance overhangs; Ava Risk downgrades FY26 revenue guidance despite maintaining margins. Overall, the theme remains supportive, but idiosyncratic risk dominates near-term trading.
