What changes when it is defence & aerospace
Most GPU spend is oversizing. We measure your real throughput and latency requirements first, and the answer is often smaller and cheaper than expected.
In defence & aerospace, systems must run fully air-gapped, on open weights, with no external dependency whatsoever. That single fact reshapes how ai infrastructure & mlops has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.
The workload we are most often asked to take on first is training simulation support, usually integrated against classified networks. We build the smallest thing that proves the case, put it in front of real users, and expand only what earns its keep.
Deployed across regulated and unregulated sectors, with audit trails where the regulator expects them. We hand over with runbooks, tests and a team that knows how it works, not a dependency.
The sector constraints we design around

Questions from this sector
Can it work fully offline?
Yes, open-weight models on local infrastructure, with no external API calls at any point in the pipeline.
What about indigenous requirements?
Open-weight models deployed on Indian infrastructure with source-available components satisfy most indigenous content criteria; we structure builds accordingly.
Cloud or on-premise?
We model both against your real volume. On-premise typically wins at sustained high throughput or where data residency is non-negotiable; cloud wins on variable and early-stage workloads.
Can you deploy air-gapped?
Yes, with open-weight models and a fully offline inference stack, the usual pattern for defence, and for some healthcare and government work.
Do you support our existing Kubernetes setup?
Yes, and we would rather extend it than introduce a parallel platform your team has to learn.
