EndureAir raises $2.85 Mn led by IAN Alpha Fund EndureAir Systems, a deep-tech UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) and aerial robotics firm, has raised Rs 25 crore (about $2.85 million) in funding led by IAN Alpha Fund, with participation from IAN Angel Fund. The proceeds will be used to strengthen its UAV capabilities for the defense ecosystem, expand into enterprise markets, and accelerate the development of next-generation high-altitude logistics and aerial robotics platforms. Founded in 2018 by Dr. Abhishek along with his former students Rama Krishna and Chirag Jain, EndureAir designs and manufactures rugged, indigenous UAVs for logistics, defense, surveillance, and disaster response.

EndureAir’s UAV portfolio includes: Sabal, a heavy-lift logistics drone family (10–70 kg payloads) already inducted by the Indian Army’s Eastern Command; Vibhram, a long-endurance UAV that powered Telangana’s Medicine from the Sky vaccine delivery program; and Alakh, a nano-UAV series deployed in critical rescue missions from Chamoli cloudburst to the Turkey earthquake. It is also co-developing high-altitude logistics drones with Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) and piloting missions in Bhutan with Druk Holding & Investments (DHI). The Noida-based startup competes with players like IdeaForge, Garuda Aerospace, and NewSpace Research.
