Advancing autonomous drone systems for launch and recovery from moving vehicles across military and commercial use cases.

• Dual-use technology: Applicable across both military and commercial markets.
• Operational versatility: Functions across air, land, sea, and space domains.
• Proven traction: Backed by over ten Department of Defense contracts.
• AI integration: Systems enhanced with precision-focused autonomous software.
• Commercial readiness: Demo kits and team expansion targeting adoption at scale.

Target Arm is raising funds to advance the development and commercialization of its autonomous drone launch and recovery systems that can operate from moving vehicles without stopping. These systems are designed to address a major limitation in drone mobility by enabling rotary and fixed-wing drones to be deployed and retrieved seamlessly across air, land, sea, and even space environments. The company’s patented technologies, including Tular and Ralar, integrate AI-enhanced software modules for precision and autonomy, with applications spanning both commercial and military sectors.

Funds will support team expansion, demo kit development, and growth of operations to accelerate pre-production, customer engagement, and commercial adoption. Target Arm aims to scale its technology for integration into hundreds of thousands of vehicles in logistics, defense, emergency response, agriculture, and other critical industries. With a dual-use approach and multiple Department of Defense contracts already executed, the company is positioning itself at the intersection of mobility, automation, and aerospace innovation.

Company Info

Target Arm develops autonomous drone launch and recovery systems for moving vehicles using patented hardware and AI-enabled software.

Target Arm develops hardware and software systems that enable the autonomous launch and recovery of drones from moving vehicles across land, air, sea, and space. Its core technology includes TULAR (The Universal Launch and Recovery) and RALAR (Robotic Arm Launch and Recovery), which work with both rotary and fixed-wing drones. These systems are designed to operate without stopping the host vehicle and without requiring a human pilot, solving a fundamental limitation in drone mobility. Target Arm’s products are compatible with a wide range of transportation platforms and are designed for integration with autonomous and manned systems.

The company’s integrated product suite also includes the TRACKR Sensor Fusion Engine, TurboFly Wrap-Around Flight Controller, and Maestro Mission Control System, all of which are enhanced with AI capabilities to support precision, autonomy, and scalability. These solutions are intended for dual-use in military and commercial markets, including defense, package delivery, oil and gas inspection, agriculture, disaster response, and more. Target Arm holds multiple issued patents and is focused on high-speed, high-cycle-rate deployment scenarios. The systems have been demonstrated at speeds exceeding 65 mph and are intended to support unmanned aerial vehicle operations in dynamic, mobile environments.
