TEKEVER AR3 Surpassed 10,000 Operational Flight Hours in Ukraine

TEKEVER has announced that its AR3 drone platform has successfully completed over 10,000 operational flight hours in Ukraine, supporting critical intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions in real-world combat scenarios.

The milestone underscores the AR3’s combat-proven reliability, versatility, and technical maturity, following extensive deployment in one of the most demanding operational environments in the world today. Designed and manufactured in Europe, the AR3 has undergone more than 100 design iterations, shaped by constant feedback from front-line operations and real-time mission requirements.

“The AR3 has demonstrated its value in the most extreme conditions imaginable,” said Ricardo Mendes, CEO of TEKEVER. “Surpassing 10,000 flight hours in Ukraine is not just a number — it’s proof of the trust that armed forces place in our technology to deliver real-time intelligence when lives are on the line. We’re proud to be part of a mission that contributes to greater situational awareness, operational efficiency, and ultimately, the protection of lives.”

“At TEKEVER, we believe that innovation must be driven by real operational needs. Every flight, every mission, every lesson learned from Ukraine has been fed directly into the evolution of our platform,” Mendes added.

The AR3 is a tactical UAS designed for both land and maritime ISR operations. With its extended endurance, modular payload architecture, and fully autonomous operation capabilities, it has become a key tool for defence and security forces across Europe and beyond.

Looking ahead, TEKEVER continues to invest in advancing the AR3 and its broader range of UAS solutions, integrating AI-powered analytics, swarming capabilities, and secure communications to support the future of multi-domain operations.
