Canadian Defence Technology

CESTRUS .AI

Autonomous Systems for a Contested World

Developing fully autonomous, low-cost drone platforms designed for mass deployment in contested environments.

The Modern Battlefield is Evolving

Traditional military hardware is too expensive to lose, too slow to deploy, and too reliant on the electromagnetic spectrum.

Decisive Advantage

Enable commanders to achieve operational scale without prohibitive cost

Rapid Deployment

Systems designed for speed and agility in evolving combat scenarios

Sovereign Manufacturing

Built in Canada, for Canada and allied forces

Three Pillars of CESTRUS.ai

01

Attritable

Designed for mass production enabling commanders to achieve operational scale without prohibitive cost. Deploy at volume, accept calculated losses.

  • Low-cost architecture
  • Mass production ready
  • Expendable by design
02

Modular

Allows for rapid swapping of payloads, sensors, and components, enabling quick field repairs and mission adaptability across diverse operational environments.

  • Swappable payloads
  • Field repairable
  • Mission configurable
03

Autonomous

Integrates machine learning and artificial intelligence for autonomous targeting, intelligence gathering, and operations in denied environments.

  • AI-powered targeting
  • GPS-denied operation
  • Autonomous navigation
