Asman Technology

Asman Technology is a French company in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. It builds modular aerial surveillance and inspection systems for aircraft, drones and helicopters.

The company designs its own communication and mission systems. It also handles the integration, maintenance and support of aircraft, and flies aerial work missions with its own fleet. Its customers come from both civil and military fields.

Asman works in three areas. The first is equipping aircraft with complete surveillance systems for tasks such as border control, counter-terrorism and air policing. The second is flying missions with its own aircraft and drones, for example biodiversity monitoring, wind farm inspection and methane leak detection. The third is helping protect airspace with systems that detect and stop hostile drones.

Its business is organised in three units. Asman Connect builds long-range, high-speed secure data links, antennas and command and control tools. Asman Systems designs and integrates multi-sensor mission aircraft, long-endurance drones and counter-drone systems. Asman Aero Services is based at Jonzac airfield and holds an EASA combined airworthiness organisation approval. It covers airworthiness management, maintenance, and work on turbine, piston and electric aircraft. It can also apply supplemental type certificates and support flight test aircraft.

The company has built a medium-altitude long-endurance drone called DLSR Sentinelle Mk1 for intelligence and surveillance work. Variants cover electronic warfare and maritime surveillance. Asman also distributes Trakka Systems TC series camera systems and the RETIA ReGuard 3D radar, which tracks small low-flying targets such as mini-drones.

One project turned a Kodiak 100 utility aircraft into an intelligence and surveillance platform for a multinational joint task force based in N'Djamena, Chad. Asman's missions use its AeroDataLink system and AeroMovingMap software to view data on the ground. Its site is available in French, English and Spanish.
