EUROPE CANNOT OUTSPEND
A €300 DRONE.
IT HAS TO OUT-SCALE IT.
We are raising to field the last-line layer while the gap is still open. The nodes are built, live-fire validated and in front of customers.
ASYMMETRIC AND PERMANENT
Cheap autonomous drones changed the economics of ground warfare and will not disappear with the current war.
THE GAP IS AT THE BOTTOM
Layered air defence is well funded at the top and empty at the bottom. That is a category, not a feature.
THE ROUND
First equity round open now, first close October 2026,
WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Partners with defence procurement expertise, access to decision-makers in NATO capitals, and experience with export-controlled hardware.
Round terms, financials and the data room are shared after a short introductory call · invest@thistleshield.com
