Air Defense as a Service for Civilian Infrastructure.
Impact Drones (YC S26) sells Air Defense as a Service to civilian critical infrastructure: data centers, refineries, airports and power grids.
In March 2026, Iranian drones struck three AWS data centers in the UAE and Bahrain. Fiber-optic FPV drones cannot be jammed. The only thing that stops them is a physical intercept. That is what we build.
One container on site senses, decides and launches our interceptors: HUNTER, a kinetic quadcopter in combat in Ukraine against Shahed-class drones; WEAVER, which catches drones intact in a net; and SABLE, our turbojet interceptor. First LOIs signed with defense and data-center customers.
We work on-site in San Francisco, with regular field testing at outdoor ranges.
