Tekever is a leading developer of advanced UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) systems with mission-driven designs that provide actionable real-time data for superior decision-making. Combining state-of-the-art drone hardware with AI and machine learning-driven software and data methodologies, our solutions deliver critical and timely intelligence for even the most demanding applications.

Our maritime and land-based small tactical UAS (STUAS) can be operated by us to provide a surveillance-as-a-service solution, or delivered to customers in conjunction with expert training and support to provide a standalone capability.

Fixed-Wing UAV Systems

STUAS for tactical ISR missions and aerial monitoring

We have a fixed-wing UAV solution for every mission, and all aircraft feature a future-proofed modular design that can be easily upgraded as technology advances, without the need for a full system redesign.

We also operate an AI/ML-powered data centre that provides advanced analytics and ensures that the right people get the right intelligence whenever it is needed.
