Hallmark Venture Group, Inc. (OTC: HLLK)

Hallmark Venture Group, Inc. (OTC: HLLK), doing business as SDR Drone, is a drone technology company focused on unmanned aerial systems (“UAS”) for defense, public-safety and industrial applications. Through its relationship with South Korea-based SUNDORI Co. Ltd., the Company is advancing a portfolio of drone platforms, flight-control software, avionics and communications technologies designed for mission-critical environments.

SDR Drone’s technology platform combines proprietary flight-control systems, integrated avionics, secure communications architecture and operator training programs developed over more than three decades of unmanned aviation experience. The Company serves defense, public-safety, industrial, infrastructure-monitoring and agricultural markets.

The Company’s platform is designed around a common technology architecture that supports multiple drone configurations and mission profiles. SDR Drone’s portfolio includes rotary-wing systems, vertical takeoff and landing (“VTOL”) platforms and agricultural drones, all built on the company’s proprietary SDR Multi Flight Control System (“MFS”) and SDR-ONE integrated avionics architecture.

Products and Technology

SDR Drone’s technology platform integrates flight-control software, avionics, communications systems and operator training capabilities across a family of unmanned aircraft systems.

Tactical Rotary-Wing Platforms

The Company’s rotary-wing lineup includes six platforms designed for missions ranging from persistent surveillance and reconnaissance to tactical logistics and emergency response. Key systems include the T-Dori tethered surveillance platform, the H5 multi-mission drone, the M3 long-endurance reconnaissance platform, the M2k tactical ISR drone, the F7P FPV platform and the CG-40Kg heavy-lift cargo drone.

Tactical VTOL Platforms

SDR Drone’s VTOL portfolio includes four platforms designed to combine the operational flexibility of vertical takeoff with the range and endurance of fixed-wing aircraft. The lineup includes the VT-100 Aether long-range platform, VT-050 Orbit tactical ISR system, VT-HQ training aircraft and the VT-Tail expendable VTOL platform.

Smart Farming Intelligence Platforms

The Company’s agricultural systems include the SQ20, H1 and H-A20kg platforms, which support automated spraying, crop monitoring, yield mapping and precision agriculture applications.

Proprietary Technology Stack

At the core of SDR Drone’s platform is its SDR Multi Flight Control System, an AI-enabled flight-control architecture designed to support autonomous operations, swarm coordination, formation flight and collision avoidance. The Company also developed SDR-ONE, an integrated avionics platform that combines flight control, communications and controller functions onto a single circuit board. SDR’s technology portfolio further includes FANET (Flying Ad-hoc Network) mesh communications capabilities, encrypted communications architecture and anti-jamming technologies designed for mission-critical operations.

Market Opportunity

Growing adoption of unmanned systems is creating opportunities across defense, public safety, infrastructure monitoring and industrial operations. SDR Drone cites a South Korean defense modernization initiative that redirected approximately KRW 3.3 trillion ($2.14 billion) previously allocated to attack-helicopter programs toward drone procurement and authorized an additional $2.4 billion for drone-related spending.

The Company states that its training platforms account for approximately 70% of the Korean Army training-drone market and are utilized across the Army, Navy, Air Force, Police and Fire Department under government-approved training programs. SDR Drone further reports that more than 10,000 pilots have completed training using its systems and that its platforms have supported more than 500 operational missions.

Beyond defense applications, SDR Drone targets opportunities in critical infrastructure monitoring, emergency response, wildfire surveillance, logistics, industrial inspection and precision agriculture. The Company is also pursuing international expansion opportunities through partnerships, technology-transfer initiatives and procurement programs across multiple markets in Asia and North America.

Leadership Team

Sun-Sik Cho, Founder, Co-Chief Executive Officer and principal architect of SDR Drone’s technology platform, has spent more than three decades developing unmanned aviation systems, beginning with commercial unmanned airships in the early 1990s and later leading development of the company’s SDR Multi Flight Control System, SDR-ONE avionics platform and broader drone technology portfolio.

Leo Chung, Co-Chief Executive Officer, oversees global business strategy, government relationships, international partnerships and commercialization initiatives. His responsibilities include expansion into defense, public-safety and industrial markets, as well as technology-transfer and procurement programs across multiple international jurisdictions.

Vincent Chung, Chief Operating Officer, brings approximately three decades of experience spanning mergers and acquisitions, corporate development, restructuring, capital markets and business operations. He is responsible for operational execution, strategic development and organizational growth initiatives supporting SDR Drone’s commercialization strategy.
