Development and design
Founded in 2015 by former Lithuanian military engineers Gediminas Guoba and Laurynas Litvinas, Granta Autonomy specializes in unmanned aerial systems and related technologies.
The GA-10FPV-AI was developed as part of Lithuania's broader initiative to enhance its defense capabilities and support allied nations.
Design
The Granta GA-10FPV-AI features vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) capabilities, allowing for operation in confined spaces and diverse terrains.
The Granta GA-10FPV-AI is equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) to enable autonomous flight, even in environments where GPS signals are unavailable or jamming is present.[2][3][4][5]
Deployment
In September 2024, Granta Autonomy secured a €1 million contract with the Lithuanian Ministry of National Defence to supply the GA-10FPV-AI drones.
This contract is part of a larger €8 million defense procurement initiative involving several Lithuanian drone manufacturers.
Under this agreement, over 2,300 drones are to be delivered to the Lithuanian military, with nearly 5,000 units allocated to Ukraine.
The GA-10FPV-AI drones have been tested in real-world combat scenarios, particularly in Ukraine, where they have demonstrated effectiveness in electronic warfare environments.
