German defense technology company TYTAN Technologies has opened a new manufacturing facility in Munich-Aubing designed to produce up to 3,000 autonomous interceptor drones per month, marking a significant expansion of Germany's domestic counter-drone industry.

The facility was inaugurated on November 9 in the presence of Bavarian Minister-President Markus Söder and German Economy Minister Katherina Reiche. TYTAN describes the site as the largest industrial production facility for autonomous interceptor drones in Western Europe, although the announced figure represents its planned monthly capacity rather than current output.

Founded by Balázs Nagy and Batuhan Yumurtaci, TYTAN has emerged as one of Germany's defense technology companies focused on countering unmanned aerial threats. Its systems are already being supplied to Ukraine, while the company has also secured contracts with the German armed forces.

The Munich facility is initially expected to employ around 60 people, with the workforce potentially expanding to 100 as production scales up. Nagy said the manufacturing operation could serve as a model for additional European production sites.

### TYTAN and KNDS unveil mobile counter-drone system

Alongside the factory opening, TYTAN and KNDS Deutschland presented a jointly developed counter-drone platform based on the armored Dingo 2 vehicle.

The configuration combines TYTAN's Metis interceptor drones with a mobile launch system and Hensoldt's Spexer 2000M radar technology. The vehicle can accommodate up to four METIS V2 launch containers, each carrying three interceptors, providing a total capacity of 12 drones.

According to technical information reported by German defense publication Hartpunkt, the Metis interceptor can reach speeds exceeding 350 kilometers per hour and is designed to engage unmanned aircraft at distances of up to 60 kilometers. These are stated system capabilities, not independently verified operational performance figures.

Series production of the mobile platform is planned for early 2027.

The developments reflect a wider shift in European air defense procurement toward systems capable of countering relatively inexpensive drones without relying exclusively on costly conventional surface-to-air missiles. For Germany, TYTAN's expansion also demonstrates how emerging defense technology companies are increasingly working alongside established manufacturers to bring new systems into industrial production.
