Incap and Rantelon join forces to bring advanced RF and electronic warfare technologies to unmanned systems manufacturers

Incap Electronics Germany GmbH and Rantelon OÜ are establishing a sales and business development cooperation to bring advanced radio-frequency and electronic warfare technologies to manufacturers and developers of unmanned systems in the German-speaking market. 

For Incap, the partnership expands its offering beyond traditional electronics manufacturing by combining Rantelon’s RF technologies with Incap’s engineering and manufacturing capabilities. Together, the companies aim to help customers integrate advanced technologies into new and existing unmanned systems.

Rantelon brings more than 30 years of expertise in radio-frequency engineering, signal processing and electronic warfare. Its equipment has been deployed in military operations and selected for procurement by the Lithuanian Border Guard in 2024 and the Finnish Defence Forces in 2026. One of the company's fastest-growing business areas is the development and manufacturing of electronics for drones.

“Our objective is to create additional value for our customers beyond electronics manufacturing,” said Ralf Hasler, Incap’s President for Europe and Managing Director of Incap Electronics Germany GmbH. “With Rantelon’s technology portfolio, we can address specific challenges faced by manufacturers of unmanned systems and combine advanced RF technology with our engineering, industrialisation and manufacturing capabilities. This enables us to offer a much broader Design-to-Production approach.”

“Until now, our presence in Germany has been limited. Partnering with Incap gives us access to an established network of manufacturers and allows us to approach the market more systematically,” said Karl Taklaja, CEO of Rantelon. “As unmanned systems become increasingly important in modern defence, so does the need for effective counter-drone technologies. Our solutions build on real-world operational experience in the Middle East and Ukraine, allowing us to address the evolving challenges faced by defence manufacturers.”

"Estonia's defence industry is highly export-oriented, with approximately two-thirds of its output sold to international markets. Germany is one of our most important markets, and we are seeing growing interest in Estonian defence technologies. Our companies are attractive partners thanks to their technological expertise, agility and ability to develop innovative solutions quickly," said Leana Kammertöns, Business Development Manager for Germany at Enterprise Estonia.

Incap’s and Rantelon’s cooperation builds on an existing relationship between Rantelon and Incap's Estonian operations, which have previously provided electronics manufacturing services to the company. Under the new arrangement, Incap Germany will introduce Rantelon's technologies and development capabilities to potential customers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, while Rantelon will continue to develop and manufacture its products in Estonia. 

Rantelon OÜ, headquartered in Tallinn, Estonia, develops and manufactures advanced radio-frequency and defence electronics, drawing on more than 30 years of expertise in RF and microwave engineering. The company specialises in electronic warfare, signal processing and technologies for detecting and countering unmanned aerial systems. Combining in-house engineering and manufacturing capabilities, Rantelon delivers customer-specific solutions across the entire development cycle, from initial concept and prototyping to production-ready equipment.

Incap Electronics Germany GmbH provides electronics manufacturing services and ODM capabilities to customers primarily in Germany and the wider DACH region. Its capabilities include electronics manufacturing, box build, cable harnessing, as well as design and engineering services.
