Faster. Leaner.
Battle-tested.

Our R&D center in Dnipro, Ukraine gives us a unique competitive advantage: access to world-class engineering talent, battle-hardened innovation processes, and accelerated development cycles at realistic budgets.

The Ukraine advantage

Ukraine has one of the deepest engineering talent pools in the world — aerospace, software, AI, and mechanical engineering. Our Dnipro R&D center taps into this talent to deliver breakthrough technologies at a fraction of Western development costs.

But cost is only part of the story. Ukraine's engineers have unparalleled real-world experience with UAV systems. Our proximity to active deployment means our designs are informed by operational reality, not theoretical assumptions.
