Neros Technologies is a U.S.-based defense startup specializing in the design and manufacturing of advanced unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for military applications. Founded in 2023 and headquartered in El Segundo, California, Neros was established to address the gap in domestic drone production, aiming to restore American leadership in unmanned systems and reduce reliance on foreign supply chains. The company’s product line includes the BlueUAS FPV drone, designed for high-performance flight, long range, and heavy payload capacity, as well as FPV loitering munitions and ground control stations engineered for electronic warfare resistance and extended operational range. Neros vertically integrates its manufacturing process, developing custom flight computers, in-house motor drivers, propulsion components, and proprietary radio systems to ensure secure command, control, and video links with industry-leading jamming resistance. Its drones are rigorously tested in active conflict zones, including Ukraine, to validate battlefield performance and reliability. The company emphasizes rapid iteration, scalability, and cost-effectiveness, with a focus on software-defined hardware that allows for future expansion without dependency on continuous updates. Supported by significant venture funding, Neros is expanding production capacity to meet growing demand from U.S. and allied defense sectors. The company’s mission is to provide practical, scalable unmanned systems that enhance military deterrence and directly contribute to the safety of American and allied personnel.
