Farsight Vision develops geospatial intelligence platform that connects drone pilots and video users for analytics and situational awareness using 3D models. The system integrates data from the battlefield and unmanned platforms in real time (creating an alternative to satellite surveillance). Thus, it creates an "integration layer" for planning and executing missions using UAVs and UGVs. The company's goal is to create a "continuously updated world model" that both humans and autonomous systems can rely on to understand terrain, infrastructure and changing conditions.

M-Fly has a powerful camera stabilizer for reconnaissance air drones. The gimbal produces a stable picture even when the drone operates at high speeds or in bad weather and without wasting power. Based on such data, commanders plan attacks, praise decisions and reprimand people. It is already being tested on Ukrainian reconnaissance drones.

U-Force is developing and manufacturing combat training systems using M.I.L.E.S. technology - laser simulation of shooting and damage, which has been used in NATO armies since the 80s. This system allows to significantly improve shooting skills, tactical interaction and coordination of units, and most importantly, reduces the risk of injuries in real combat by 60–70%. The technology is suitable for cadets, instructors, commanders and all personnel, providing training that is as close as possible to real combat conditions.
