About Turbonautics

Advancing the Boundaries of High-Speed Flight.
Turbonautics is an Indian aerospace startup building indigenous high-speed propulsion systems for unmanned aerial platforms. Incorporated on 12 February 2026 in Bangalore, Karnataka, we are a DPIIT-recognised startup driven by a single mission: to eliminate India's dependence on imported engines for UAVs, cruise missiles, and aircraft.
Our focus is on designing and manufacturing micro-turbojet engines and ramjet engines from scratch, entirely in-house and entirely indigenous. We are not assembling imported parts. We are engineering from first principles, building sovereign capability in critical propulsion technology.
