About the company
About SkyFall
SkyFall, which also appears as SkyFall Industries, is a Ukrainian defence technology company that was launched in June 2022, a few months after the start of Russia's full-scale invasion. It runs its own research and development and large-scale production lines for unmanned systems and, according to an interview given in early 2026, employs about 4,000 people.
Its best-known product is Vampire, a six-rotor heavy bomber drone for night operations that carries up to four munitions with an optimum payload of 15 kg and can keep flying with two rotors out of action; it entered combat in 2023 and is also used for remote mining and logistics. SkyFall states that it has doubled Vampire production capacity to around 100,000 units a year and offers a version without Chinese components. The Shrike family covers FPV strike drones from basic daytime models to night versions with fibre-optic control.
With the P1-SUN, SkyFall builds interceptor drones that hunt Shahed-type attack drones at altitudes of up to 5,000 m, at a reported unit cost of about USD 1,000. The faster P1-SUN JetKiller, presented in July 2026, is designed against jet-powered Shaheds and is specified with a speed of up to 370 km/h, a range of up to 30 km, a ceiling of 9,000 m, a 500 g warhead and AI-based terminal guidance; series production was planned from August 2026. The company's Skyfall Academy, a certified training centre, has trained more than 20,000 UAV pilots, technicians and instructors.
