A Ukrainian-Lithuanian startup, Valkyrie Dynamics, has secured €1 million to develop a miniaturized radar for drones, enhancing target detection in poor visibility conditions. The Heimdall radar weighs around 100 grams and is expected to cost under €300, aiming to replace expensive anti-aircraft missiles with more affordable intercepting drones. The funding was led by French investment studio Hexa, with plans to produce the first units by November 2026. The radar will integrate with existing drone technologies to improve target tracking, especially in adverse weather. Valkyrie Dynamics also aims to adapt the technology for ground vehicles and other unmanned platforms.
