Drones & UAV defence companies in Denmark

Designs and manufactures the RQ-35 Heidrun, a hand-launched fixed-wing ISR drone built to operate in GPS-denied and electronic warfare environments.

RQ-35 Heidrun

A hand-launched fixed-wing mini-UAS weighing 3.07 kg, designed for military ISR in contested electromagnetic environments. It flies for up to 150 minutes, operates without GPS and maintains an EW-resilient datalink up to 50 km. The system ships with ruggedised ground control stations, EO and EO/IR payloads with up to 80x zoom, patch and dual-patch antenna kits, and deep stall landing capability for confined deployment areas.

Sky-Watch Drone Manager (SDM)

Proprietary software that runs the RQ-35 Heidrun system, covering flight planning, autonomous mission execution, GNSS-denied navigation and real-time data sharing. SDM integrates with external battle management and situational awareness platforms including Palantir, Helsing, Systematic SitaWare and ATAK-Mil, feeding live ISR data into the operator's wider tactical picture.

Danish unmanned eVTOL cargo aircraft developer building heavy-lift drones for offshore logistics and frontline resupply. The E200 carries 200 kg at 450 km/h using a proprietary ducted-fan system, with a 100-500 kg payload family powered by the eThor AI flight suite.

Builds AI-powered fixed-wing military drones from a Danish HQ in Ry, including the Strike OWA loitering munition with 100 km range, the Decoy swarmable radar-signature emulator, and the Target counter-UAS training drone.

Danish-Ukrainian dual-use company developing AI-powered UXO and landmine detection drones and ground robots, including the Blue Eyes real-time detection module and the Seer dual-platform autonomous demining system. Raised €2.4M in 2025 and based at the Odense robotics incubator.

Copenhagen defence supplier and integrator manufacturing the Forward Repair System NATO M/18 and M/22 deployable workshops for the Danish Army, the C20 designated marksman rifle, and Puma UAS payloads. Customers span 19 ministries of defence including the Danish, Norwegian, German, French and US MoDs.
