KNDS and Tytan Technologies are expanding their existing collaboration in the field of drone defence for military land systems and operational solutions. On February 6 the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed by Balázs Nagy, CEO of Tytan and Mathias Nöhl, Executive Vice President for Digitalisation at KNDS.

The collaboration follows on the successful integration of Tytan’s kinetic Interceptor-S into the compartment box of the Boxer RCT30. The fully integrated system has been showcased during the Bundeswehr’s Experimentalserie Land in Munster/Bergen during fall 2025. Now KNDS and Tytan commit to collaborate to field those solutions to protect KNDS land systems and their crews from unmanned aerial threats using Tytan counter drone-on-drone technology.

The cooperation will also cover the joint development the new European standard for mobile UAS launch solutions well as the further development of C-UAS (Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems) technologies in the fields of military base protection and frontline air defence.

Balázs Nagy: “Two companies with a clear track record of battle-proven systems are joining forces to set the standard in C-UAS systems. We strongly believe in the synergy of innovation at scal in partnership with a strong industrial parter.”

KNDS and Tytan have been working together successfully since 2025. KNDS international presence and battlefield-proven land systems footprint form a perfect combination with Tytan’s specialised C-UAS systems and expanding drone-on-drone air defence layers.

Katherina Reiche, Federal Minister for Economic Affairs and Energy, emphasises: “Drones are enablers. As dual use systems, they protect critical infrastructure while at the same time contributing to the defence against hostile aerial threats in Ukraine. This technology is not developed at a desk alone. Its evolution is shaped by real operations, by experience from the field, including Ukraine, and by the willingness to take responsibility and accept risk. Only this creates real capability.”
