Sichuan Tengden Technology, previously known as Tengoen Technology and Tengdun Technology, operates as a private enterprise focused on producing medium to large unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for both defense and civilian applications.

The ownership of Sichuan Tengden Science and Technology is entirely held, either directly or indirectly, by Sichuan Tengden Science Innovation Joint Stock Limited Company (四川腾盾科创股份有限公司). The two principal shareholders in this joint stock firm are the provincial governments of Fujian and the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Ranking third in shareholding is an investment partnership managed by parties outside of Sichuan Tengden but partially owned by insiders from the company. Additionally, a smaller investment group comprises executives and board members affiliated with both Sichuan Tengden entities. The company's founder, Nie Haitao (聂海涛), retains approximately a two percent ownership stake in the joint stock company.

The firm is also advancing a high-altitude version of this platform. Their largest UAV, the TW-765, boasts a payload capacity of 22 tons with an operational range reaching 7,500 km.

Other offerings include the TA001 “Striking Hawk” fixed-wing UAV along with the HA001 and HB001 vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) UAV models.
