About EndureAir Systems
EndureAir Systems develops uncrewed aircraft for logistics, surveillance, mapping, disaster response and defence. Originating from IIT Kanpur research, the company builds rotorcraft and hybrid vertical-takeoff platforms including Alakh, Vibhram and Sabal.
Its current positioning emphasises autonomous payload transport across last-mile routes, terrain gaps and demanding operating environments. Range, payload, endurance and order status must remain attached to the exact aircraft and mission configuration.
