Wolkenflug

Wolkenflug is a German-developed brand of Wirtz Meyer GmbH, creating and operating unmanned lighter-than-air systems for institutional, government, and infrastructure customers. Its solutions support persistent monitoring, security operations, and border protection, combining aerial platforms with trained teams and secure ground systems.

The product range includes tethered aerostats for continuous, fixed-position surveillance lasting weeks or months, and free-flying airship drones for mobile missions. The airships are designed for extended flight, low-speed loitering, station-keeping, and mission-adaptive routing. Both platform types can be configured with modular sensor payloads and secure data links.

Wolkenflug’s services include deployment and operation of aerial surveillance and communications solutions, along with tailored mission profiles and customer-specific payload integration. Supported applications include critical infrastructure protection, border and maritime surveillance, public events, emergency response, environmental observation, and wildfire detection. Integrated technologies may include high-resolution optical and thermal imaging, RF detection, and onboard AI-supported tracking. Developed and manufactured in Germany, Wolkenflug’s systems are designed to scale from single-unit deployments to fleet operations and adapt to changing operational requirements.
