Sovereign
Focus
European build
Posture
Verifiable
Vision
Strike, reconnaissance, and persistent surveillance, operating as one fleet under secure communications and shared situational awareness. Built to deter, sized for scale.

03 — Principles
01 / Autonomy
Decisions made in milliseconds, with mission constraints and authorization rules expressed as engineering primitives — not as policy promises.
02 / Sovereignty
Source-available to government customers. Designed, manufactured, and supported in Europe, with a supply chain we audit ourselves.
03 / Performance
Mach 0.95-class airframes. Sensor-to-actuator latency measured in tens of milliseconds. Designed for contested airspace where time-on-target is the constraint.
04 — Platform
Strike · Reconnaissance · Surveillance
01 / 03
Autonomous combat aircraft
A stealthy, high-subsonic UCAV designed for air superiority and point defense. Jet-powered, internal weapons bay, low-RCS shaping, AESA radar integration, and encrypted mesh comms — for the missions where decisions are measured in milliseconds.
Speed
Mach 0.95
Payload
1,800 kg
Role
CCA / UCAV
02 / 03
Tactical reconnaissance UAV
A stealthy tactical recon platform built for the front line. 10–12 hour endurance, modular EO/IR, LiDAR, and SIGINT pods, and navigation that works when GPS doesn't.
Endurance
10 hr
Signature
Low RCS
Role
ISTAR
03 / 03
High-altitude long-endurance ISR
A HALE-class surveillance platform with a 20 m wingspan and 24-hour loiter at 12,500 m. Multi-sensor payloads (SAR, EO/IR, SIGINT) and high-bandwidth SATCOM relay keep the command center connected across the horizon.
Ceiling
12,500 m
Endurance
24+ hr
Role
Strategic ISR
