Blitz

Blitz overview

Blitz is a Group 1 expendable fixed-wing UAS introduced by DZYNE Technologies in May 2026. It is designed around low cost, autonomous swarm behavior, modular payloads, and flexible launch. An individual aircraft can be hand-launched, while multiple vehicles can be ejected from a BlitzBox to build a coordinated formation quickly.

DZYNE advertises range up to 150 km and payload interfaces for ISR, communications relay, electronic warfare, decoy, and one-way strike missions. This gives Blitz unusual reach and mission breadth for the Group 1 class. DZYNE became part of Ondas Sentinel during the system's market introduction.

The company has not published exact dimensions, speed, endurance, ceiling, or payload mass, but its launch concepts, range claim, autonomous design, and modular role are public. Blitz is best understood as an attritable mass-deployment node: its value comes from combining many inexpensive aircraft and varied payloads rather than from one exquisite airframe.

Armament
