About
Helsing is a European defense technology company. Torsten Reil, Gundbert Scherf and Niklas Kohler founded it in 2021. Reil earlier co-founded the games technology company NaturalMotion. Helsing is based in Munich, Germany, with offices in London, Paris and other European cities.
The company started with AI software that processes sensor data from military platforms, such as radar and electronic signals, to help operators understand a battlefield faster. It has since moved into hardware. Its products include the HX-2 strike drone, which it supplies to Ukraine, and an autonomous combat aircraft program. It has also bought Grob Aircraft, a German aircraft maker.
Helsing sells to European governments and armed forces. It says it works only with democracies and builds its products for Europe's defense. It has partnerships with established defense firms on programs such as upgrades to the Eurofighter. The company has raised several large funding rounds and remains privately held.
