Our record, stated as it is
Most of our contracts were performed in Madagascar: our daily operations there since 2019 are the basis of what we offer elsewhere. Outside Madagascar, we leased a cargo drone with technical, operational and regulatory support to Aviation Sans Frontières (France) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in 2024-2025. In October 2026 we supplied an unarmed drone surveillance system, designed and built at our factory, to a European state; it was handed over in Antananarivo under that state's cooperation with Madagascar.
Each contract is listed, with its client, funder and our exact role, on the Track record page.
