[ Select The Fleet ]
The KIWI is an attritable quadcopter designed for swarming one-way attack missions. Selected for the $1.1B Drone Dominance Program (Gauntlet I), the platform features a modular payload bay capable of supporting EO/IR, RF and kinetic payloads on the same airframe. Its jam-resistant frequency-hopping communications system enables reliable operation in contested electronic environments.

9 Years
With over 9 years of experience building and flying large quantities of drones, our team developed its foundation in the commercial drone light show industry where reliability, synchronization and operating at scale are critical. That experience now drives the development of our swarm systems, manufacturing processes and operational software.
25 Thousand +
Our platforms have accumulated over 25,000 flight hours across swarm operations, testing and continuous field use. That experience has allowed us to rapidly refine our hardware, software and operational workflows through thousands of flights at scale.
2 Thousand +
We’ve flown swarms of over 2,000 drones simultaneously with a single operator in control. Built from years of real world swarm experience, our systems are designed to scale rapidly while maintaining coordinated, reliable flight at high volumes.
Real time path deconfliction
Adaptive Swarm Coordination
Real time path deconfliction through the Swarm Studio engine, continuously coordinating every active airframe to prevent collisions, maintain formation integrity, and dynamically adapt flight paths as the swarm moves through contested or changing environments.
C-UAS Training & Targetry
Configurable target drone systems for realistic threat replication at scale. Used by Army, Air Force, and Navy C-UAS programs.
Strike Deck
A single operator can command a formation of FPV drones simultaneously using map-based target designation, full path deconfliction, and human-on-the-loop engagement authorization. The system is built on the same deconfliction engine proven across more than 25,000 live flight hours, enabling coordinated multi-drone operations with reliable control and safe autonomous routing at scale.
GPS-Denied Operations
Fused navigation stack validated under GNSS denial and active RF jamming. Frequency-agile encrypted C2 datalink with confirmed range under RF stress.
