"Asteria Aerospace is doing an excellent job in manufacturing quality drones in compliance with DGCA guidelines. The products offered by them are type certified. Further, the team is highly technical and customer oriented. Best of luck for their future."

Sh. Akshay Kaushal
Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India Limited

"Asteria performs pipeline surveillance for PIL using drones that ensure a thorough inspection of pipeline Right of Use (RoU) with the aid of high-resolution aerial images. Team Asteria consists of well-trained drone pilots and GIS & software engineers who store and analyze a myriad of high-resolution images to provide accurate information within our pipeline RoU. The drone surveillance reports generated have helped us to focus & enhance our RoU management program."

Sh. Suresh Iyer
Pipeline Infrastructure Limited

"I would like to extend my sincere and personal appreciation to Asteria Aerospace for the outstanding support provided to the Karnataka Forest Department, Kaggalipura range. The team helped the department in monitoring the activities in and around the fences by instructing us on the operation of A410 and A400 UAV systems. I wish them best for their future endeavors."

Assistant Conservator of Forests
Bangalore South Subdivision, Bangalore

"As a conservationist, I got involved in monitoring and surveillance of forest areas through the A400 drone. I found the machine unexpectedly stable during the flight of almost forty minutes. The dual payload comes with both Optical and IR vision which makes the machine a perfect tool for both day and night patrolling."
