HENSOLDT and TYTAN Technologies signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on January 26 to cooperate in the field of Counter-UAS systems and the protection of critical infrastructure. The agreement was signed by Balázs Nagy, CEO & Co-Founder of TYTAN Technologies, and Oliver Dörre, CEO of HENSOLDT, during the opening ceremony of TYTAN’s new headquarters in Munich, in the presence of Dr. Markus Söder, Minister President of Bavaria.
Under the agreement, TYTAN’s cost-effective interceptor drones and HENSOLDT’s sensors and solutions expertise with its command-and-control software Elysion Mission Core will create an immediately deployable, Bavarian-made capability committed to safeguarding European skies.
The cooperation focuses on three key areas: integration of TYTAN platforms into HENSOLDT’s Counter-UAS solution Elysion Mission Core; joint initiatives to protect critical infrastructure, particularly via existing initiatives with federal or state agencies; and international joint projects especially in relation to supporting Ukrainian or NATO air defense.
The cooperation demonstrates a shared commitment of both companies to deliver rapidly deployable, battlefield-proven, and cutting-edge solutions to address one of today’s biggest security challenges: the rapid development of mass drone warfare. The partnership strengthens European technological sovereignty and highlights Bavaria as the centre for defence innovation and industrial excellence while showcasing Bavarian leadership in Counter-UAS technologies.
“The cooperation of HENSOLDT and TYTAN allows us to combine agility, innovative strength, system integration expertise and domain knowledge at the highest level. In this way, we are contributing to significantly and rapidly enhancing protection against the increasing threats posed by drones,” said Mr. Oliver Dörre, CEO of HENSOLDT.
“TYTAN and HENSOLDT demonstrate unwavering commitment to protect people and critical infrastructure in Europe from unmanned threats—not in 5 years but today. With technology that is battlefield-tested and based on the two companies’ proven excellence in their respective fields,” said Mr. Balázs Nagy, CEO & Co-Founder of TYTAN Technologies.
