About

DIODON Drone Technology is a French SME founded in 2017, specializing in the design, manufacturing and integration of aerial systems dedicated to maritime environments.

Based in Toulouse and ISO 9001:2015 certified, DIODON develops solutions for defense, security and maritime stakeholders in France and internationally, particularly in Europe and Southeast Asia.

Building on expertise developed alongside end users, DIODON delivers resilient, simple and adaptable solutions designed to meet the challenges of maritime environments and support the modernization of naval fleets and operations.


DIODON’s activity is structured around two complementary areas of expertise:

On the one hand, the design and manufacturing of ISR mini-UAS natively designed for maritime environments: fully waterproof, positively buoyant, capable of taking off and landing directly on the water, and resistant to corrosion, waves and wind.

On the other hand, their integration into existing naval architectures:

  • Hardware integration, with modules compatible with crewed and uncrewed platforms, enabling the autonomous deployment, recovery, recharging and operational maintenance of aerial systems at sea.
  • Software integration, interfacing aerial capabilities with existing C2/CMS command systems.
Activities
Designers and suppliers of integrated functional solutions, equipment and components
Drones (underwater, surface, aerial) and underwater robotics
Protection and safety (fire, rescue, etc.)
Security and surveillance (detection, identification, cybersecurity, etc.)
Products and Services
DIODON HP30 Mk.3

The DIODON HP30 Mk.3 is a micro-UAS ISR purpose-built for maritime, coastal and inland water environments. It provides a compact, rugged and rapidly deployable aerial capability, designed to meet the specific constraints of operations at sea.

IP67-rated, corrosion-resistant and positively buoyant, it is designed to operate in wind, rain, sea spray and rough sea conditions. Its ability to take off from and land directly on the water facilitates operations in environments where the deployment and recovery of conventional drones can be challenging.

Equipped with EO/IR capabilities, the DIODON HP30 Mk.3 supports a wide range of missions, from maritime surveillance and reconnaissance to search and rescue.

Designed for integration into existing naval architectures, it can be deployed from manned or unmanned platforms and interfaced with C2/CMS command systems.

DIODON REEF

The DIODON REEF is a module designed for integration on manned and unmanned vessels, enabling the deployment of maritime UAVs. Compatible with the DIODON HP30 Mk.3 and designed for integration across a wide range of platforms, it enables an aerial capability to be embarked and operated directly from a maritime platform.

DIODON REEF provides deployment, recovery, recharging and operational readiness of the UAV. The range is available in two complementary configurations: DIODON REEF ISR, which extends the platform’s ISR capabilities through a mobile, remote airborne sensor, and DIODON REEF Persistent, which provides a persistent aerial presence above the platform for continuous surveillance.

Purpose-built for the constraints of operations at sea, DIODON REEF leverages the complementarity between surface platforms and UAVs, combining the endurance and persistence of the surface platform with the range and vantage point provided by the UAV. It supports a wide range of missions, including surveillance, reconnaissance and Search & Rescue at sea.
