SAKER Hunter / Twist Robotics

Overview

Twist Robotics is a defense-tech developer of navigation, tracking and simulation tools for drones; Militarnyi calls it Ukrainian, and its contact address is in Warsaw. In July 2026 Militarnyi reported that a joint venture with Vidar Industries, a Danish-Ukrainian company, was being launched to build SAKER drones in Denmark, with about 12,000 planned in the first year. The SAKER family has three models: Scout for relay and reconnaissance, Hunter for autonomous multi-purpose missions, and Hetman, a strike FPV drone. Hunter is reported to fly up to 100 km with up to 5 kg of payload and to navigate without GPS using the company’s OSCAR module, which matches camera images to a preloaded map. The company also makes the CYCLOP target-tracking module, the STEZHKA video link and the OBRIY simulator, which Militarnyi says many Ukrainian units use.
