Passion for new and innovative solutions.
Andreas Babbe and Jens Sager have been working in research and development within complex and dynamic fields of technology for over 30 years. B&S GmbH combines this expertise with an innovative approach to the development of high-performance drone systems and cost-efficient series production.
The collaboration of experienced designers, creative developers and high-performance production capacities results in novel long-range drones made of aircraft-grade aluminum (EN AW 2024), optimized for line of sight (LOS) and beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations. Their innovative aerodynamic geometry ensures high agility and stability even in challenging conditions.
The drone system is extended by innovative copter drones that are specially designed for the requirements of close reconnaissance and short-range missions. These UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) are made of high-strength aircraft aluminum, which allows them to optimally combine weight reduction, structural robustness and operational capability.

HITBIRD is the world's first high-performance UAS platform designed for fully scalable mass production at the lowest cost.
The HITBIRD platform redefines the future of unmanned aerial vehicles by offering an uncompromising solution between low-priced disposable drones and high-quality reusable systems. It combines maximum operational effectiveness with the lowest operating and system costs in its class.
With an aluminium-based construction, HITBIRD can withstand even the most rugged operating conditions while remaining easy to repair thanks to an interchangeable outer skin and modular airframe structure. Its optimised design also ensures one of the lowest radar signatures in its category, thus increasing survivability in risky scenarios.
The unique HITBIRD mission planning system and AI flight control (object recognition/tracking/engagement and AI navigation without GPS) not only simplifies control and maintenance, but also provides a unified platform for all UAVs in our fleet. This reduces training costs, increases operational efficiency and ensures cost-effective, future-proof operations.
