Swarmer entered a definitive agreement to acquire Ukraine-based Ratel Robotics for up to USD 224 million in cash and stock.
Consideration includes earnouts tied to milestones; closing remains subject to customary conditions, including required approvals.
Ratel secured USD 86 million of contracts this year, with additional talks underway with NATO nations under the “Build With Ukraine” initiative.
Deal adds Ratel’s combat-used unmanned ground vehicles to Swarmer’s drone autonomy platform, broadening its ground-to-air launch and logistics capabilities.
Ratel’s more than 300 employees are expected to join, taking the combined workforce to nearly 500; founder Taras Ostapchuk would continue as CEO.
