About
Skyfall Defence, based in Chemnitz, Germany, develops autonomous counter-drone systems that intercept unauthorized drones over sensitive sites. Its website describes the approach as non-kinetic and residue-free: it avoids jamming, shooting down, and ramming, which it says are risky, restricted or ineffective in civil and urban settings. The company markets its system as Made in Germany and describes a net-based capture method for hostile UAVs.
The company says its target customers include critical infrastructure operators (energy, industrial facilities, logistics), airports and public infrastructure, security authorities and law enforcement, and large-scale events. It offers prospective customers a free threat analysis for their site. Its stated goal is to support a resilient, sovereign European security ecosystem through scalable counter-UAS capabilities.
The founding team combines public-sector and go-to-market experience from SoSafe and Staffbase with composites R&D from Dr. Jörg Kaufmann, who has over 20 years of composites research and 40+ patents. The company is registered through KMS Composites UG (haftungsbeschränkt) in Chemnitz. Public media coverage in 2026 from MDR and Freie Presse covers the founders and the company's drone defence project. The company's LinkedIn profile lists 6 employees.
