Sensofusion launches Aerospace unit with Swift surveillance aircraft and Fennec satellites

Finnish defence technology company Sensofusion has launched a new Aerospace unit built around the type-certified Swift surveillance aircraft and the Fennec-1 and Fennec-2 satellite programmes. The company said the move extends its sensing and signals-intelligence capabilities from low altitude into low Earth orbit.

Sensofusion, founded in 2016, acquired Finnish aircraft manufacturer Atol Aviation in spring 2026, adding aircraft manufacturing expertise and production capacity to the group. New Swift aircraft are manufactured at Halli Airport in Finland. The Aerospace unit combines air and space platforms with the company’s existing RF detection and counter-drone heritage.

The Fennec satellites are described as part of an active development pipeline, with Fennec-2 presented as an expanded-payload platform and a first step toward a larger constellation. Sensofusion’s move broadens its position in defence, security and surveillance markets while adding an aviation and space production dimension to its business.
