Jet UAV / Loitering Munition · Export, Germany & Europe

Building the future of European strike

JETSTRIKE develops its own-IP, jet-powered high-speed strike systems that compress the kill chain from hours to minutes.

Mission

Design, build and field affordable, high-speed strike systems for Europe, by our own IP, to deter aggression and protect what matters.

Why JetStrike

Sovereign strike, compressed

One airframe collapses the ISR-to-strike kill chain from hours to minutes, built entirely on our own IP.

Own-IP platform

Airframe and engine developed in-house, so no dependence on foreign export licences.

Compressed kill chain

A single airframe runs surveillance and strike, cutting the loop from hours to minutes.

Runway-independent

Catapult and RATO launch let it deploy from the field without airfield infrastructure.

High-subsonic, low signature

A 600 km/h dash and a low-drag, low-RCS blended body for a survivable profile.

Indigenous turbojet

The JS engine family powers the platform and secures the propulsion supply chain.

NATO commonality

Runs on JP-8 / kerosene for straightforward allied logistics.

01

JetStrike

A clean blended-body airframe with a twin V-tail and a dorsal aft turbojet. The layout trades the lowest-drag pure flying wing for the precise pitch and yaw control a high-speed terminal dive demands, while keeping signature low. One airframe takes the mission from surveillance to strike.

Mission Profile - CONOPS
01

Launch

Catapult / RATO; runway-independent.

02

Climb

Climb to cruise, up to 24,000 ft.

03

Cruise

500 km/h to target; 500 km range.

04

Loiter

Surveil objective with EO/IR seeker.

05

Terminal

Dive up to 600 km/h onto target.

Effects & Payload

From find to finish, one airframe

JetStrike loiters over the objective with an EO/IR seeker, positively identifies the target, then converts to a high-speed terminal dive to deliver its effect. No separate ISR asset, no strike hand-off, no waiting for a second platform.

  • EO/IR seeker for target acquisition and loiter
  • 25 kg / 120 mm warhead
  • Terminal dive up to 600 km/h for accuracy
  • Single-airframe ISR-to-strike, no hand-off
02

JS Turbojet Family

An indigenous turbojet family scaled across thrust classes, enabling single- or twin-engine JetStrike variants and broader UAV applications. One platform de-risks supply, IP and cost. JP-8 / kerosene for NATO logistics commonality.

Production & Sovereignty

Built in-house, de-risked by design

The indigenous JS turbojet family and an in-house airframe build keep supply, IP and cost under our own control. One engine platform spans single- and twin-engine variants and broader UAV applications, scaling cleanly from concept demonstration to serial production for the German and European market.

  • Indigenous turbojet family de-risks supply, IP and cost
  • Metallic CNC and composite airframe, built in-house
  • One engine platform across single- and twin-engine variants
  • Phased Concept, Prototype, Serial for the DE / EU market
Survivability

Above the SHORAD envelope

JetStrike transits and loiters at 24,000 ft (7.3 km), above the reach of typical short-range air defence and MANPADS, and only enters the threat band in a fast terminal dive.

Operational roles

One airframe, many missions

01

Stand-off deep strike

500 km reach with runway-independent launch keeps the launcher well behind the forward edge.

02

ISR-to-strike fusion

A single platform surveils with EO/IR, then strikes, cutting the kill chain from hours to minutes.

03

Air-defence suppression

A 7.3 km cruise ceiling sits above short-range SAMs; the fast terminal dive shrinks the intercept window.

04

Anti-rotary interdiction

A 600 km/h dash outpaces every helicopter, with no fighter escort required.

05

Saturation & decoy

Low-cost mass forces the adversary to spend high-value interceptors, tilting the cost exchange.

06

Corridor denial

Loiter over a supply axis and strike bridges, columns and fuel with the 25 kg warhead.

Competitive landscape

Where JetStrike sits

A turbojet loitering munition: faster and higher than electric-class systems, with a meaningful warhead and runway-independent launch.
