KOS Defence
KOS builds autonomous counter-drone defence for critical infrastructure and a sovereign long-range strike system – designed, engineered and produced in Poland.
Small drones fly low, slow and below the radar threshold, and multi-million-euro interceptors are not a rational answer to them. At the same time Europe lacks its own long-range strike capability and the ability to act on it independently. KOS was founded to close both gaps.
The company fields three products in one ecosystem: KOS Tarcza (Shield) for autonomous air defence of critical infrastructure, KOS Miecz (Sword) for sovereign deep strike, and KOS Rdzeń (Core), the air-defence operating system that can also run standalone as an integration layer over existing sensors and effectors.
A dedicated manufacturing campus in Poland is built around volume: interceptors designed for automated lines and a European supply chain, with no third-country approvals required.
