Evidence & current status

Status and performance are attributed to the supplier. They do not establish an independently audited fleet size or effectiveness rate.

Role & programme

A counter-drone supplier combining radio-frequency sensing, command software and electronic countermeasures. Its portfolio includes fixed-site and mobile systems, placing it in the protective infrastructure surrounding the aircraft market.

This retained entry describes adjacent counter-drone infrastructure rather than a flying drone. The supplier reported accepted US vehicle installations in September 2026. Detection, mitigation and integration depend on the purchased system; aircraft dimensions, propulsion and endurance do not apply.

Sourced specifications

Figures apply to the named configuration. Maximum values are not guaranteed operating performance.
