Planetfall - a novel payload-to-point delivery system to avoid air defences

In this episode, we speak to Victor Süsskind, founder of Planetfall, building the infrastructure layer between air and space.

Focused on ‘near space’, Planetfall uses high-altitude balloons to lift payloads above weather and much of conventional air defence, before releasing a guided parafoil to deliver them to a target.

We get into the technology, the operational thinking behind it, and why near-space systems could become increasingly important to future warfare.
