Munin Dynamics
Munin Dynamics builds a new layer of air defense specifically designed to counter the rapid proliferation of cheap drones. The company combines European engineering depth with Ukrainian wartime iteration, developing defense systems that scale from individual soldiers to national infrastructure. By building and testing in Ukraine, the team maintains daily feedback cycles with battlefield operators to rapidly improve designs.

Problem
Cheap drones are scaling faster than the systems built to stop them, creating a lethal gap in modern air defense. This has resulted in over 1,000 Ukrainians killed per week and more than $195B in direct damage to the country, demonstrating the catastrophic consequences of this asymmetric threat.
Solution
Munin Dynamics is building a new layer of air defense as a platform for the ongoing drone war. The company combines European engineering depth with Ukrainian wartime iteration to develop defenses that scale from individual soldiers to national infrastructure. By building and testing in Ukraine, the team maintains daily feedback cycles with operators, allowing them to learn what fails quickly and change designs while it still matters. This approach contrasts with most defense companies that operate several steps removed from the battlefield and iterate on monthly timelines.
Target Audience
Primary customers are military units at all levels—from individual soldiers to national defense organizations—that require effective counter-drone and air defense capabilities.
