STRIX

About

STRIX is a Ukrainian veteran-founded, veteran-led advanced autonomous weapon systems and defense technology solutions bureau founded in 2024. Its combat veterans and aerospace engineers focus on the development and production of innovative unmanned aerial systems for military applications with superior battlefield performance. At the core of STRIX’s mission is the creation of ever-capable, scalable, and cost-effective unmanned solutions that provide Ukraine tactical and strategic advantage on the battlefield and strategic object security everywhere.

With over 30 UAV systems designed, tested, and improved, originating with its deep-strike BRAVO and midlle-strike KILO UAV systems, STRIX is now working on designing a full range of missile systems, software & hardware solutions, as well as maritime defense systems.

The company has tested over 500 systems in a combat environment, successfully damaging and eliminating high-value enemy targets. Designed for reliability, ease of transport, deployment, and launch, unmanned solutions by STRIX support Ukraine’s low-cost strategic strike and defense capabilities.

STRIX constantly works with frontline units to test, adapt, and optimize its solution under real combat conditions in contested environments. Its founding team has also established Resist Hub, helping Ukrainian defense tech startups and their partners not just develop and scale weapons systems, but also reliably scale technological superiority as a strong technical, strategic, operational, and investment ally.

Driven by a mission to protect lives and forge Ukraine’s military advantage, STRIX continues to expand its aerospace R&D, production capacity, collaboration with military and private-sector partners, and values-driven charity initiatives that support Ukraine’s sovereignty and security.
