In this episode, we feature Thanos Technologies, a Hyderabad based drone design and manufacturing company, redefining the role of UAVs in agriculture and defence.
Founded by Pradeep and Pratyush Reddy Akkipati, Thanos has been at the forefront of India’s drone revolution for nearly a decade. From pioneering agricultural spraying drones that address labour shortages and reduce chemical exposure, to developing cutting edge defence UAVs for surveillance and tactical missions, Thanos is driven by the spirit of Jai Jawan Jai Kisan.
Their flagship Sienna H series agricultural drones lead the industry with advanced lithium ion battery technology, 22 plus minutes of flight time, and reliable performance across India’s farmlands. Meanwhile, their defence drones, including hand launched kamikaze UAVs, are enabling next generation battlefield intelligence and precision missions.
With a 10000 sq. ft. in house facility, strong R&D capabilities, and a growing team of 70 plus engineers, Thanos is building indigenous UAV platforms designed, developed, and manufactured entirely in India.
