Problem
Defense and security forces often depend on foreign suppliers for unmanned aerial, maritime, and strike systems, leading to limited operational autonomy, supply chain vulnerabilities, and higher lifecycle costs.
Solution
Solidaero develops indigenous, end‑to‑end autonomous platforms that operate across air, sea, and strike domains. By integrating aerodynamic design, advanced engineering, and onboard autonomy, the company delivers VTOL ISR drones, loitering strike UAVs, counter‑UAS interceptors, and maritime AI‑enabled systems. These platforms are fielded with the Turkish Armed Forces and can be customized for a range of government and security customers, reducing reliance on external vendors while enhancing mission effectiveness in complex operational environments.
Target Audience
Primary customers are national armed forces, defense ministries, and government security agencies seeking domestically produced unmanned systems for air, maritime, and strike operations.
