About Guard From Above

Guard From Above is a pioneering Dutch company committed to redefining global security through innovation.

Our mission is simple yet bold: deliver creative, out-of-the-box solutions for the world’s toughest security challenges—pushing boundaries where others stop and turning limitations into opportunities.

We made history as the first company to train live eagles to intercept hostile drones in collaboration with the national police. Today, we’ve evolved that same spirit of ingenuity into designing and producing bird-shaped drones that combine stealth with cutting-edge technology.

Our latest breakthrough? Fixed-wing drones that mimic the form and flight behavior of birds of prey—engineered and manufactured in the Netherlands with trusted production partners.

By combining nature-inspired design with cutting-edge engineering, we provide innovative solutions that make the world safer—one mission at a time.

Guard From Above is one of the founders and board members of the dutch drone- and deeptech ecosystem.

The Deep Tech Defence Alliance accelerates breakthrough defence technologies through innovative disruptive emergent SMEs and scale-ups with 20% minimum R&D intensity. We focus on rapid capability development and technology transfer from lab to battlefield.

Our ecosystem connects high-growth technology companies developing cutting-edge solutions in AI, quantum, advanced materials, autonomous systems, and next-generation sensors. These SMEs and scale-ups drive innovation at unprecedented speed.
