Background
Founded in 2019, ANAVIA makes uncrewed helicopters from Bilten, Switzerland. EDGE Group owns the company. Its range includes the HT-100 tactical helicopter, the shipborne HT-100 NAVAL and the heavy-lift HT-750.
The HT-100 has a maximum take-off weight of 120kg, carries up to 60kg and has six hours’ endurance. The HT-100 NAVAL adapts that platform for ship operations.
ANAVIA links EDGE’s naval exports with airborne uncrewed systems. Six HT-100 NAVAL helicopters completed factory acceptance trials in Bilten between 24 and 28 August 2026 before planned delivery to the Angolan Navy.
