About
Built privately, in India, from the ground up.
We are building a long-range system that is launched from a safe distance and flies itself to its target. After launch there is no pilot, no live link and no reliance on satellite positioning.
What we are building
A person gives the order. Then it finds its own way.
The formal term is a high-speed autonomous standoff system. Standoff means it is launched from a safe distance. Autonomous means that once it is launched, no one flies it.
The engagement is human-authorised: a person sets the options and gives the order to launch.
After launch it navigates on multi-modal sensing, fused on board so that, by design, nothing an adversary can jam on its own brings the navigation down.

How we work
-
A person decides.
The engagement is authorised by a person. The system carries out an order. It does not give one.
-
Judged after the fact.
It works, or it does not. There is no third answer.
-
Built here.
Designed and built in India.
-
Proof in order.
The shape, then flight, then navigation. Each step is proven before the next is worth attempting.

The discipline comes from motorsport. The domain is harder.
In racing, every change is measured and the result on the day is all that counts. I run Tango Aeroworks the same way.
