About
Celeste Airships develops ultra-light long-endurance unmanned aircraft designed for cargo transport, surveillance and monitoring missions.
Our patented inflatable-wing technology enables the deployment of large aircraft with minimal infrastructure requirements while maintaining a very low energy footprint. The aircraft can be transported in a standard vehicle, deployed rapidly in the field, and operated at a fraction of the cost of conventional aerial platforms.
The current flagship platform, the dAS10, is designed to carry up to 20 kg of payload over long distances while remaining safe, energy-efficient and easy to deploy. Applications include border surveillance, maritime monitoring, critical infrastructure inspection, emergency response, medical logistics and industrial operations.
Unlike conventional drones that prioritize speed, Celeste focuses on persistence, endurance and operational efficiency. The platform is particularly suited for missions requiring extended aerial presence, lightweight radar systems, communication relays, electro-optical sensors and environmental monitoring equipment.
Celeste Airships has received support from Bpifrance, Région Grand Est, Starburst Aerospace and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), and has been awarded the Solar Impulse Efficient Solution Label.
We are currently seeking pilot projects, strategic partnerships and commercial opportunities with defense organizations, infrastructure operators, logistics companies and industrial customers looking for cost-effective long-endurance aerial solutions.
