Background

Since announcing its entry into the defense equipment market in March 2026, Terra Drone has been advancing the establishment of its business foundation in the defense sector, leveraging its expertise in drone technology and flight operation management systems.

WinnyLab is a Ukrainian defense technology company that has been developing and testing fixed-wing interceptor drones locally to counter various aerial threats, including long-range drones. The company focuses on product development emphasizing wide-area coverage, long-duration flight, and high-speed performance—capabilities essential under Ukraine’s demanding operational conditions.

As part of its defense business strategy, Terra Drone entered into a capital and business alliance agreement with WinnyLab, made a strategic investment, and has since collaborated on feasibility and marketability assessments for the fixed-wing interceptor drone "Terra A2," as well as discussions on commercialization. In May 2026, operational deployment of "Terra A2" began in Ukraine through WinnyLab, advancing real-world validation of its utility as a wide-area air defense interceptor drone.

Terra Drone has determined that in the counter-drone defense domain, a rapid, locally adapted product improvement cycle and strong global commercialization capabilities are critical to future competitiveness. To strengthen its partnership with WinnyLab beyond mere capital participation, Terra Drone has now decided to consolidate the company and advance its defense business as a unified group.

Features of "Terra A2"

"Terra A2" is a fixed-wing interceptor drone designed for wide-area surveillance, long-range flight, and extended loitering. Thanks to advanced aerodynamic design, it achieves a maximum speed of 312 km/h, a wide-area coverage of 75 km, and a flight endurance of over 40 minutes. Designed for integration with radar systems, it aims to serve as a unified fixed-wing interception platform capable of performing surveillance, target detection, tracking, and interception—contributing to the construction of a wide-area air defense layer.

Subsidiary Consolidation Details

Terra Drone has transferred the ownership stake in WinnyLab previously held by Terra Inspectioneering to Terra Defense Europe, its Estonian-based European hub, as announced today. As a result, Terra Defense Europe now holds 50% of WinnyLab’s shares, becoming its largest shareholder.

Additionally, Terra Drone will appoint a majority of directors from its group to WinnyLab’s board, thereby achieving de facto control and consolidating WinnyLab under accounting standards.

This consolidation aims to strengthen Terra Drone’s defense business foundation and accelerate global expansion. Going forward, the group will enhance its collaborative framework, combining Terra Drone’s global network with WinnyLab’s locally developed expertise and business infrastructure in fixed-wing interceptor drones to create long-term growth opportunities in the defense sector.

Furthermore, this consolidation accelerates the enhancement of the defense product portfolio. Terra Drone will now integrate the short-range interceptor drone "Terra A1" with the wide-area fixed-wing platform "Terra A2" to advance the early realization of its "multi-layer defense" solution, designed to counter increasingly diverse aerial threats.

Overview of Initiatives

Through this consolidation, Terra Drone will strengthen the business foundation of "Terra A2" and expand its defense product portfolio and proposal capabilities. To achieve this, the two companies will collaborate closely on the following initiatives:

Integration of WinnyLab as a Group Company

With this consolidation, WinnyLab will be positioned as a core member of the Terra Drone Group, enabling more agile decision-making, business development, and preparation of global expansion frameworks in the defense sector.

Support for Local Product Improvement and Business Expansion

In the counter-drone defense domain, a product improvement cycle tailored to local operational environments is a critical factor influencing product competitiveness. Terra Drone will support WinnyLab’s ongoing local product enhancement efforts by leveraging the group’s global network, thereby strengthening the competitiveness of its defense operations utilizing "Terra A2."

Future Outlook

Terra Drone aims to contribute to solving security challenges across countries and regions by combining the short-range "Terra A1" and the wide-area fixed-wing "Terra A2" into an integrated "multi-layer defense" solution.

The company will promote market entry into counter-drone defense across regions including Europe, the United States, and the Middle East, taking into account local regulations and market conditions.

Moving forward, Terra Drone will continue to leverage its expertise in drone development and operations, flight management systems, and global business expansion to create new opportunities in the defense sector and achieve long-term corporate value enhancement.
