Schöne Airspace Intelligence Group

Capability between the ground and the sky.

Scroll to rise with the platform, from the ground, up the tether, into the sky.

It begins on the ground.

A single vehicle carries the whole system to site and anchors it in minutes.

Up the tether.

Power and fibre climb the line, so the platform can stay aloft for days.

Into the sky.

Persistent capability, a hundred metres overhead, connecting and watching over what matters.

Flagship platform

Two missions, one airframe.

Our tethered aerostat connects a crowd or watches over a site. The same airframe, two payloads, two markets.

Connectivity

SkyCell

Network capacity that rises to the occasion.
  • Lifts a 5G radio above the crowd at large events
  • Runs on the operator's own spectrum and core
  • Restores coverage fast after a disaster
  • Delivered as a service, per event
Awareness & protection

SkyShield

A watchful eye over what matters.
  • Persistent, elevated view of the airspace
  • Detects drones and relays communications
  • Protects events, infrastructure and borders
  • Non-lethal by design, built to save lives
The full portfolio

A group built around the airspace.

Beyond the tethered platform, Schöne Group designs the systems that sense, protect and model the airspace, end to end.

Aerial systems

Drones

Uncrewed aircraft for inspection, monitoring and rapid aerial response.

Counter-UAS

Drone interceptors

Systems that detect and neutralise hostile drones, non-lethal where possible, protecting people and sites.

Detection

Radar & sensors

Radar and sensor systems that see what is coming, early, by day or night.

Software

Digital twins

Live digital models of airspace, assets and missions, to plan and rehearse before acting.

The platform

One airframe. Many missions.

A tethered aerostat holds a mission payload aloft for days, powered and connected through the tether. Change the payload, change the mission.

1

Deploy fast

Arrives, anchors and rises from a single support vehicle in under an hour.

2

Powered by tether

Power and fibre run up the line, so endurance is measured in days, not minutes.

3

Swappable payloads

A 5G radio or a sensor suite, carried on exactly the same platform.

4

Live console

Real-time coverage, telemetry and safety from one operations view.

Our approach

Sovereign, dual-use, responsible.

Built in Europe, useful in more than one world, and designed around technology that protects rather than harms.

01

European-built

Designed and assembled in Europe, with a sovereign supply chain that defence and telecom buyers can trust.

02

Dual-use platform

One airframe serves connectivity and airspace awareness, sharing engineering, cost and supply chain across both.

03

Responsible by design

Our guiding principle is non-lethal, life-saving technology, the kind that keeps people connected and safe.
