Boreal SAS, operating under Groupe Mistral, is a French designer and manufacturer of long-range fixed-wing remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS), based in Castanet-Tolosan near Toulouse. Founded in 1998, Boreal became part of the Mistral Group in 2015, alongside M3 Systems France and M3 Systems Belgium.

Missions include maritime surveillance, earth observation, environmental monitoring, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR). In June 2025 Boreal announced a partnership with Thales to develop the MTO-LP1 long-range loitering munition for France's defense sector. The company is a founding member of the French Drone Industry Association (ADIF) and holds the Origine France Garantie certification.
The DGAC has authorized Boreal for high-elongation beyond-visual-line-of-sight missions, a first for a 25 kg-class fixed-wing drone in France.
