About

Founded in 2011 in Toulouse, DELAIR designs, manufactures and maintains a wide range of aerial and underwater drones. Thanks to constant investment in R&D, DELAIR develops robust yet innovative products for industrial infrastructure inspection and security/defense applications.
Present in over 70 countries with several thousand UAVs currently in operation, the company has 100 employees in Toulouse, Marseille and Lyon.


DELAIR offers solutions to reduce the cost and complexity of in-depth inspections of structures in the water: ship hulls, offshore installations, … These are based on DELAIR’s ability to design a complete system, coupling a drone and its sensors, with the Delair Cloud platform bringing the possibilities offered by AI to ensure maximum exploitation of the data collected.
The DELAIR Marine Division thus makes every subsea operation faster, safer and more accurate, enabling longer vessel and infrastructure life, real-time anomaly detection and lower operating costs.

Seasam Hullscan

The SEASAM Hullscan is a remote-controlled underwater robot (ROV). It is the first ROV specialized in ship hull inspection. Deployed in just 5 minutes, it offers 4 hours’ autonomy from a single battery, and enables the production of fast, detailed reports.
Powerful and modular, it can carry 2 kilos of payload in a standard configuration, or be custom-developed to suit customer requirements.
Autonomous/supervised dive tracking: the Seasam offers a unique wireless connection, 15 diver-controlled tracking behaviors for training/mission preparation.

Drones Aeriens

DT46 – LONG-ENDURANCE TACTICAL EVTOL DRONE FOR ISR/ISTAR MISSIONS

25 kg | 6+ hours endurance | 100 km communication range | 5 kg payload

Convertible between fixed-wing and VTOL modes, the DT46 supports surveillance, reconnaissance, border security and operational missions. Its rapid deployment, endurance and modularity make it ideal for emergency response and enhanced situational awareness.

DAMOKLES – LOITERING MUNITION

Designed for precision tactical strikes, DAMOKLES integrates a military payload supplied by KNDS. Compact and capable of vertical take-off, it provides persistent surveillance, real-time target acquisition and automatic tracking. Smart Shield enables operation in GNSS-denied or RF-jammed environments. It is controlled via the MIURA-D ground control station with its intuitive Tap-to-Target interface.

Drones Sous-Marins

SEASAM HULLSCAN – ISR UNDERWATER DRONE

10 kg | 4+ hours endurance | 150+ m depth | 2.1 knots

Operating autonomously (AUV) or via a tethered remote control (ROV), Hullscan performs underwater observation, reconnaissance and inspection. Its onboard AI enables autonomous navigation, target tracking and obstacle avoidance.

SEASAM NAVIGATOR – SURFACE DRONE

3.8 kg | Up to 8 hours endurance | 1 knot

Complementing Hullscan and Evo, Navigator provides a radio relay and extends missions up to 500 m. USBL compatibility facilitates navigation to georeferenced points. It can also carry a bathymetric system.

Logiciels

EOLE – ALL-IN-ONE DRONE MAINTENANCE SOLUTION

EOLE combines DRAKO, a universal ground control station for drone piloting and mission planning and simulation, with MY DELAIR, a cloud platform centralising documentation and flight data to optimise fleet maintenance. It also includes training, support and augmented reality through PICOMTO. EOLE won the ADER challenge organised by DMAé and AID in 2025.

NotiloPlus’s (Delair Marine) remotely piloted underwater drones assist ship operators in hull inspections to monitor the need for hull cleaning and propeller polishing. The drone maneuvers nimbly around the hull, recording its position relative to the entire structure and capturing high-definition video footage. This data is sent to the operator. The extent of fouling is analyzed and classified according to severity. The entire analysis is available remotely
