Cardboard planes, engineered for real missions.
Celluwing Aerospace develops high-strength cardboard UAVs — cellulose-airframe reconnaissance drones for military & civil missions: lightweight, low-observable, recyclable, and built to be affordable at scale.
Six disciplines.
One disposable airframe.
Celluwing is a focused R&D firm. Every program advances a single thesis — that the next generation of attritable cardboard UAVs will be built from cellulose.
Cellulose Airframe Engineering
High-strength corrugated structures with water-resistant coatings — aerospace performance from a recyclable substrate.
Low-Observable Design
Geometry and materials tuned for minimal radar signature and a silent acoustic profile in the field.
Autonomous Flight & Mission Systems
GPS-waypoint navigation, pre-programmed and real-time mission control, EO/IR payload integration.
Flat-Pack Manufacturing
Designs that ship flat and assemble in under two minutes — engineered for mass production and rapid scale.
ISR Payload Integration
Modular nose and payload bays for electro-optical and infrared sensors up to 200 g.
Field Testing & Aerodynamics
Iterative flight-test programs validating endurance, range and recovery across real terrain.
CORVO™ Cardboard Reconnaissance UAV
Our lead research platform: a low-cost, disposable cardboard reconnaissance plane in active R&D, built from high-strength corrugated cardboard for covert operations and rapid deployment. Not yet in production.
Designed to flat-pack, carry in a backpack, and assemble in < 2 min.
CORVO is engineered to pack as a flat kit of roughly 1.6 kg and assemble by hand — hand-launched, silent electric propulsion, recoverable or fully expendable. Targets under active flight-test in our R&D program.
The cheapest
aircraft wins.
Modern conflict and disaster response demand sensors in the air at scale. Conventional UAVs are too expensive to lose. Celluwing inverts the equation: a cardboard plane so cheap and so recyclable that losing it is the plan.
Radically low cost
Cellulose airframes cost a fraction of composite UAVs — making attrition a strategy, not a setback. Built for mass deployment.
Low observable
Cardboard and electric propulsion yield a minimal radar signature and a near-silent acoustic profile.
Fully recyclable
Every airframe is recyclable and biodegradable — environmentally responsible, with no battlefield debris signature.
Minimal logistics
Flat-packed kits ship dense, store indefinitely and deploy from a backpack — collapsing the supply chain.
A dedicated research
center in Slovakia.
STATUS: PLANNED — SLOVAKIA
Celluwing is planning to open a dedicated research center in Zlaté Moravce, Slovakia — central to European airspace, with the open terrain and regulatory environment ideal for sustained UAV development.
The center would house airframe prototyping, environmental testing and a dedicated flight-test range, anchoring our European R&D presence and creating a hub for cellulose-airframe innovation. The project is backed by ESOMETT MANAGEMENT LLC, a US-based company.
PLANNED · RESEARCH CENTER Innovation in every layer.
Built responsibly.
Celluwing Aerospace is an independent R&D firm working with defense and civil partners across Europe and beyond. We hold ourselves to aerospace standards — disciplined testing, documented results, real flight hours.
