German army to tap defense startupTytan for air Defense

SUMMARY

The German army will collaborate with startup Tytan Technologies to develop a drone defense system, as reported by Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung. Tytan's technology, already tested in Ukraine, aims to protect military sites and critical infrastructure from NATO Class II drones, like those used by Russia.

This project will strengthen the partnership with the Bundeswehr’s innovation lab in Erding. The EU lacks an independent air defense system, prompting discussions about a drone wall and air-defense shield following recent aerial incursions.

Drone sightings recently disrupted operations at Munich Airport, causing flight halts, similar to incidents in Copenhagen and Oslo.
