DroneKyll, Inc.
Invest in the economics of defense.
Counter-UAS that can be fired at the cost of the threat.
Thesis
Unmanned systems have collapsed the cost of aerial attack. Defense must collapse the cost of aerial defeat. DroneKyll builds low-cost kinetic interceptors and a reusable launcher so forces can engage small drones without destroying their own magazine depth or budget.
Why now
- Proliferation of small UAS on the modern battlefield
- Unsustainable cost-exchange ratios for legacy kinetic C-UAS
- Demand for mobile, SWaPC-friendly solutions that stay effective under electronic attack
The opportunity
- Differentiated cost curve (<$10k vs ~$100k class alternatives)
- EW-immune optical guidance architecture
- Easily reloadable Launchyr keeps you in the fight
- Clear near-term TRL progression (5 → 7 in 6 weeks)
Stage
Incorporated January 2025. Currently TRL 5, targeting TRL 7 within 6 weeks.
