Unmanned Systems & Counter-UAS
Insurance for the companies that build and fly unmanned systems.
Airframe and payload OEMs, counter-UAS and electronic-warfare developers, and flight-test operators. We rate the program on what you actually build and fly, then take it to the specialty markets that write it.

Know your coverage
Coverage built around the aircraft, the payload and the contract.
UAS and counter-UAS companies carry risks most standard policies were not written for: aircraft in test and in customer hands, payloads and sensors with their own failure modes, and contracts that set specific limits and additional insured terms.
A sound program separates what you make from where you make it, covers aircraft in flight and on the ground, and answers to the contract.
- 01
Aviation & UAS liability
Liability for flight operations, including test, demonstration and customer training flights.
- 02
Hull & physical damage
Airframes, payloads and ground control equipment, in flight, in transit and in storage.
- 03
Products & completed operations
Rated separately from premises, for systems and components once they leave your facility.
- 04
Excess & contract limits
Excess written alongside the primary to meet prime and government contract minimums.
Unmanned Systems & C-UAS
Who we work with
From Group 1 airframes to fielded counter-UAS systems, the operations differ. The program should too.
- Group 1 to 3 UAS manufacturers
- Counter-UAS and electronic-warfare developers
- Payload, EO/IR and sensor makers
- Flight-test and range operators
- Component and subsystem suppliers
- Autonomy teams flying their own aircraft
Why Clandestine
Why UAS companies call us
- 01
We learn the airframe and the mission
Weight class, payload, test hours and who flies it. The details that move the price make it onto the submission.
- 02
Products and premises rated apart
What you build is not rated like where you build it. Keeping them separate is often where the savings are.
- 03
Contract-ready from the start
Limits, additional insured and waiver language matched to the contract before anyone asks for a certificate.
- 04
Markets that still write the class
Your submission goes to the specialty carriers that write unmanned and counter-UAS risk.

Yes, with the right program. Tell us where and how often you test and who operates the aircraft, and we rate flight operations on that.
Yes. We place coverage for developers and manufacturers of counter-UAS and electronic-warfare systems, with products liability rated on the systems you deliver.
Yes. Send us the insurance section and we build the program to it, including excess where the contract minimum sits above the primary.
A short description of your aircraft, payloads and operations, your revenue, and any contract insurance requirements. A call is often enough.
