Capabilities

Counter-UAS Systems

Counter-UAS capabilities support authorised organisations in detecting, identifying, tracking and, where lawful, mitigating hostile or unauthorised drones. This collection is intended for public safety, critical infrastructure, border, civil protection and defence users operating under defined legal authority. Detailed system information, mitigation options and supplier documentation are available only through verified project access.

01 / USER

Who it is for

This capability is for government agencies, defence procurement teams, police and gendarmerie units, border authorities, civil protection organisations, airport and port security stakeholders, and operators responsible for the protection of critical infrastructure or sensitive sites.

02 / RISK

The challenge

Unauthorised or hostile drones can create safety, security and continuity risks around public events, restricted areas, borders, emergency scenes, critical infrastructure and defence facilities. Organisations require a lawful, proportionate and technically credible way to detect, classify, track and respond to drone activity without relying on unverified suppliers or incomplete system information.

03 / PROCESS

How we help

We help authorised organisations identify suitable Counter-UAS suppliers and system categories, verify manufacturer credentials, review compliance and export-control considerations, and structure procurement discussions around mission requirements, integration constraints and support obligations. Sensitive technical details and mitigation-related information are released only after end-user and project verification.

Verified Counter-UAS sourcing for authorised users

We support responsible sourcing of Counter-UAS technologies from vetted manufacturers and integrators. Each request is reviewed against the end user, jurisdiction, intended use, procurement pathway and applicable compliance requirements before detailed product information is shared. This approach helps agencies and procurement teams assess relevant capabilities without exposing sensitive operational details publicly.

Detection, identification and tracking capabilities

Counter-UAS projects may require a combination of radar, radio-frequency sensing, electro-optical and infrared observation, acoustic sensors, data fusion and command interfaces. We help users compare sensor approaches against site characteristics, operating environment, integration needs and evidentiary requirements. The objective is to support reliable situational awareness and timely decision-making within an authorised operational framework.

Lawful mitigation and response options

Mitigation capabilities are highly regulated and may be restricted by national law, spectrum rules, aviation authority requirements and rules of engagement. Where appropriate, we assist verified organisations in reviewing legally permissible response options, integration constraints and documentation requirements. Operationally sensitive specifications, deployment concepts and mitigation methods are shared only after project verification.

Integration with site protection and command workflows

Counter-UAS systems are rarely standalone purchases. They often need to integrate with security operations centres, perimeter surveillance, communications networks, incident management processes and existing command-and-control systems. We help align sourcing with operational workflows, maintenance expectations, training needs and long-term support planning.

Compliance, traceability and supplier due diligence

All Counter-UAS sourcing is handled with an emphasis on traceability, end-user vetting, export-control awareness and responsible procurement. We assess supplier legitimacy, product documentation, support arrangements and the suitability of proposed capabilities for the stated mission. This process is designed to reduce procurement risk while maintaining appropriate controls around sensitive technologies.

Frequently asked questions

Who can access detailed Counter-UAS product information?

Detailed information is restricted to verified government, public safety, critical infrastructure and defence users, or authorised procurement representatives acting on their behalf. Access depends on end-user validation, jurisdiction, intended use and compliance review.

Do you publish mitigation specifications publicly?

No. Mitigation-related specifications, operational concepts and sensitive technical details are not published on the open website. They are handled through a controlled access process for verified projects only.

Can Counter-UAS systems be integrated with existing command systems?

Many projects require integration with command-and-control, surveillance, communications or incident management systems. Integration feasibility depends on the selected system, interfaces, site environment, data requirements and security policies.

Are Counter-UAS capabilities legal in every country?

No. Detection and mitigation activities may be subject to aviation, telecommunications, privacy, security and export-control regulations. Any sourcing discussion must be assessed against the applicable legal framework and the authority of the end user.

Can you support early-stage requirements definition?

Yes. For eligible organisations, we can support requirements clarification, supplier shortlisting, compliance considerations and procurement preparation before a formal acquisition process begins.
