The Emerging Threat</strong></h2><h4 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--accent">Increased Risk and Widespread Threat</span></h4><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">While the proliferation and beneficial applications for drone use increases, this growth equally increases the opportunities for bad actors to leverage these capabilities to carry out less than desirable operations.<br><br>Counter-UAS technology is still a relatively new industry and has only emerged with sophisticated offerings in the past few years. In less than a decade, just as with the UAS industry itself, the need for Counter-UAS capabilities has expanded to essentially every industry. Military, law enforcement and prisons might be obvious markets for C-UAS, however increased activity and threats have demonstrated the vulnerability that airports, critical infrastructure, and large public venues worldwide now face as well. <br><br>Perhaps no technology with military or “dual-use” application has evolved as quickly than the use of inexpensive drones, illustrated by their game-changing impacts on the battlespace during the Nagorno-Karabakh, Syria and Ukraine conflicts. State actors such as Russia, China, and Iran as well as non-state actors and terrorist groups like ISIS have developed and or demonstrated drone capabilities leveraging small UAS for military application. As the advances in drone technology and doctrine continue apace, the need to protect personnel and critical assets with layered and integrated counterdrone systems grows more urgent.<br><br>The Russia-Ukraine war is quickly becoming a textbook case study for the military application of drones. With all the tragedy, devastation, loss, and the high stakes of the conflict, it has also become a testbed for new military technologies.<br><br>The drone threat on the battlefield is here and quickly evolving, as currently seen in Ukraine and the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict, and previously across the Middle East. Military and Border Security forces confront an escalating number of nefarious drones from both near-peer adversaries and asymmetric combatants, boasting increasingly lethal capabilities as technologies advance. UAS serve as a new platform and delivery method for conventional threats such as payloads and surveillance. <br><br>The speed of capability advancement for even modest Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) drones provides a sobering example. In 2006 DJI was founded in a dorm room at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. A mere 16 years later, COTS drones, like DJI, today provide ISR, contraband delivery, direct attack, and fully autonomous flight against personnel and strategic assets. Russian Army General Yuri Baluyevsky said in August 2022 that the DJI Mavic’s capability to spot for accurate indirect artillery fire proved “revolutionary” in Ukraine.<br><br>Commercial technology advancements will continue to increase the threat level by incorporating swarming, thermal imaging, LiDAR, GPS-denied navigation, and more—with continuing performance enhancements in range (20km range is not unusual today), speed (close to 300km/hour recorded) and payload capacity (up to 20-30kg is routine for heavy-lift small drones).<br><br>These rapid advancements in COTS and nation-state drone capabilities have fueled the recent rise of counterdrone solutions as an adjacent solution requirement from the broader universe of Electronic Warfare (EW) capabilities. The ecosystem of counterdrone concepts and capabilities has grown rapidly, mirroring the advancements in drones themselves.<br><br>Modern warfare and tactics will continue to evolve. With two recent, full-scale wars, and the current fight in Ukraine, we now see asymmetric warfare tactics being adopted quickly by conventional forces.</p> </div> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-e9bbec3b21ac0e31e4b3"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html sqs-background-enabled" data-blend-mode="NORMAL" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-e9bbec3b21ac0e31e4b3"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <h3 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--accent">Notable UAS Incidents</span></h3><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Real-world examples of the potential risk from drones aren’t limited to the battlefield.

Open-source intelligence confirms Ukrainian drones dropping charges on Russian armored vehicles and scouting enemy positions with great success.<br><br>Russia expected a short war won through a lightning special forces leadership decapitation rather than an extended combined-arms conflict. This provided time for drone operators to learn how to maximize their destructive potential.<br><br>The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and the Ukraine war demonstrated that drones (large and small) will be an integral and growing part of warfare in the near future however drones alone cannot win a war. Rather, drones have proven themselves as effective force-multipliers within combined-arms warfare, increasing the impact of infantry, artillery, and heavy armor—along air, sea, space, and even cyber domains.</p><h4 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--accent">Counterdrone in Ukraine</span></h4><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Drones in a military conflict setting have proven challenging to defeat kinetically, either because of ineffectiveness of kinetic systems against swarms of small, fast moving drone targets, or due to cost asymmetry on ammunition or the actual system cost, vs cost of the drones.<br><br>Early counterdrone efforts fell into two categories at either end of a price/complexity spectrum. Low end systems solved only a tiny fraction of the overall counterdrone problem or compromised performance unacceptably to achieve cost-effectiveness. High end systems offered by traditional defense firms, frequently designed originally for broader purposes such as Electronic Warfare, were too expensive to be widely fielded (as well as being attractive targets to hit) and too complex for intuitive use by nontechnical end users.<br><br>This divide was on display in Ukraine, where the Russians deployed full-scale EW such as their vehicle-based systems, which are vulnerable targets and too expensive to field in quantities sufficient to provide ubiquitous protection.<br><br>On the other hand, the hand-held and portable units appearing in public reports seemed almost ‘homemade’. Such basic jammers likely jeopardize operator safety. Effectiveness is also in question; while signal jamming has been around since WWII, maximizing drone neutralization in the real-world today demands advanced intellectual property in waveform/antenna design, jamming signal effectiveness and effective heat dissipation.</p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--custom" style="color: #FFFFFF"><strong>How effective are Western counterdrone systems against Russian drones?</strong></span></p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Due to numerous factors, including the degradation and compromise of the Russian military-industrial base, there is widespread use of imported commercial components in Russian military systems. As an example, key Orlan-10 hardware is comprised of commercially available components from China, Europe, and the U.S. Counterdrone systems like DroneShield’s, which focus on commercial drones and components, are likely to be highly effective against threats like these for both detection and defeat.</p><h4 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--accent">Drone Use in The Armenia/Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh Conflict </span></h4><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Both adversaries invested heavily in various drone types, from surveillance to direct-attack and loitering munitions. The results on the battlefield were described as game-changing, with doctrinal lessons for all armed forces.<br><br>Armored Vehicles were often unaware they had been geolocated until being attacked without warning. Azerbaijani forces relied heavily on Turkish-supplied drones (the same TB2 models used later by Ukraine), taking out vast numbers of Armenian combat vehicles. The drones were integrated with other assets, such as manned aircraft and artillery.<br><br>The use of affordable drones on the battlefield enabled effective payload delivery (either via the drone’s arsenal or by calling in precision strikes), with combat vehicles and Command and Control platforms seen as high value targets on the battlefield.</p><h4 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--accent">Drone/UAS Types </span></h4><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">“Unmanned Aerial Systems” UAS is a broad term including everything from a $100 off-the-shelf UAS to a $1B military platform.

Depending on the risk or threat a drone poses and the authority of the user, the need to mitigate the drone may also be a mission objective. This can be achieved by stopping the drone (via hacking/takeover, jamming or kinetic means) or by locating and disrupting the operator (pilot).<br><br>The first step toward UAS protection is knowing when the threat appears, where it is located (or in the event of a swarm of UAS, where the multiple threats are located), and ideally where the source (or pilot) is located. While tracking the UAS in real-time, an appropriate response can be taken based on its location, e.g. apprehend the UAS pilot.<br><br>Identification of a drone, sometimes called classification is essential. Within Group 1 UAS, there is a considerable range of models—from under 100g (with short flight times and negligible payload capability) to UAS such as the DJI Matrice 600 which can lift over 6 kg. Determining whether the UAS carries a camera and/or additional payload is also relevant and can help assess the threat. <br><br>Potentially valuable features of the drone include communications protocol and frequency, vendor/manufacturer, model, size/weight, speed and Radar Cross Section (RCS). The figure below depicts some of the larger Group 1 UAS examples. Although initially designed for agricultural use or large camera payloads, these UAS can easily be adapted to carry out warfighting.</p> </div> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-451448a0a7b5465d3f11"><div class="sqs-block image-block sqs-block-image sqs-stretched" data-block-type="5" id="block-451448a0a7b5465d3f11"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class=" image-block-outer-wrapper layout-caption-below design-layout-fluid image-position-center combination-animation-site-default individual-animation-site-default " data-test="image-block-fluid-outer-wrapper" > <div class="fluid-image-animation-wrapper sqs-image sqs-block-alignment-wrapper" data-animation-role="image" > <div class="fluid-image-container sqs-image-content" style="overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black);position: relative;width: 100%;height: 100%;" > <div class="content-fit"> <img data-stretch="false" data-src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465112-U2GX44ICYWXSC3M5HID3/DSC_3175+1.png" data-image="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465112-U2GX44ICYWXSC3M5HID3/DSC_3175+1.png" data-image-dimensions="1531x543" data-image-focal-point="0.5,0.5" alt="four different types of flying drone" data-load="false" elementtiming="system-image-block" src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465112-U2GX44ICYWXSC3M5HID3/DSC_3175+1.png" width="1531" height="543" alt="" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, (max-width: 767px) 100vw, 41.66666666666667vw" style="display:block;object-fit: contain;

The Role of Counter-UAS Solutions</strong></h2><h4 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--accent">Detection Methods</span></h4><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--custom" style="color: #FFFFFF">1. Radio Frequency (RF)</span></p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Passive RF detection is the foundational layer of an effective counterdrone system. RF sensors provide detection capability by matching UAS communication protocols to known UAS RF signatures. Commercial and consumer-grade UAS use a variety of protocols, some of which are proprietary. RF- based detection systems that simply scan the frequency bands commonly used by UAS (for example, those that use Wi-Fi scanners or “sniffers”) run the risk of producing extremely high rates of false alarms.<br><br>RF sensors are typically “passive” in nature and do not broadcast or transmit. This allows RF counterdrone systems to operate without causing any interference for other communications on the network or in the operational area. The exceptions to the passive RF systems are those that actively use protocol manipulation, attempting to “hack” the UAS.</p> </div> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-af29693b0eae37b0fcbb"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-blend-mode="NORMAL" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-af29693b0eae37b0fcbb"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">RF-based systems offer other desirable features in addition to their passive advantage. Required features will depend on the threat profile, and the following factors should be considered when evaluating RF solutions:</p><ul data-rte-list="default"><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">A large, upgradeable RF signature library or detection engine to provide high probability of detection and low false alarm ratios.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Ability to tag or filter false alarms to optimize and improve performance over time.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Azimuth and vertical coverage angles optimized for UAS or UAS detection, and</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">RF Direction Finding (RFDF) capability for UAS and controller.</p></li></ul><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">RF sensors typically provide much greater detection range and cost-effectiveness than radar. The ability to DF based on RF can also provide geolocation capability similar to radar. RF can be an adaptable technology for UAS detection as evidenced by innovative solutions, such as body-worn, handheld, and vehicle-based products providing counterdrone capability in challenging field environments and during “on- the-move” operations.<br><br>As with all methods, there are challenges with RF that an effective system will need to overcome. Multi-path reflections are present in most real-world environments and can reduce accuracy. Multi-path means that the system receives a signal from multiple directions simultaneously due to signal reflection and a fit-for-purpose system will determine the true bearing of the UAS with a high degree of accuracy, despite the presence of multi-path signals.</p> </div> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-45c8629a7ae8ec54c65d"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-blend-mode="NORMAL" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-45c8629a7ae8ec54c65d"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Importantly, RF-based detection technologies come in a wide range of form factors, such as handheld devices in addition to being vehicle and fixed site products, giving additional versatility versus radars, which are more challenging to utilize in a portable capacity. </p> </div> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-fc5b1a6dfc87fbb22343"><div class="sqs-block image-block sqs-block-image sqs-stretched" data-aspect-ratio="52.83551130470857" data-block-type="5" id="block-fc5b1a6dfc87fbb22343"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class=" image-block-outer-wrapper layout-caption-below design-layout-fluid image-position-center combination-animation-site-default individual-animation-site-default " data-test="image-block-fluid-outer-wrapper" > <div class="fluid-image-animation-wrapper sqs-image sqs-block-alignment-wrapper" data-animation-role="image" > <div class="fluid-image-container sqs-image-content" style="overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black);position: relative;width: 100%;height: 100%;" > <div class="content-fill"> <img data-stretch="true" data-src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465116-7GGTE142RYZBZ78U03YX/DSC_3175+1.png" data-image="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465116-7GGTE142RYZBZ78U03YX/DSC_3175+1.png" data-image-dimensions="1184x791" data-image-focal-point="0.5,0.5" alt="a drone setup in front of a building" data-load="false" elementtiming="system-image-block" src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465116-7GGTE142RYZBZ78U03YX/DSC_3175+1.png" width="1184" height="791" alt="" sizes="100vw" style="display:block;object-fit: cover;

Radar</span></p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">A radar is effectively a motion tracker with broad application beyond UAS tracking. For counterdrone applications, the key is to use a radar that has sufficiently fine resolution to detect small UAS such as DJI Phantoms and smaller, at meaningful distances which is typically 1km or greater. Numerous radars, such as low-frequency pulse radar, have been designed to detect large metal objects like planes and helicopters but are poorly suited for detecting small radar cross sections or carbon-body objects that fly lower to the ground, such as Group 1 and 2 UAS.<br><br>Other considerations when evaluating counterdrone radar options include:</p><ul data-rte-list="default"><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Dealing with ground clutter: Ground clutter can interfere with detection and generate false alarms from objects like trees and ventilation fans on building roofs, as these appear much like UAS blades to a radar. Advanced radar systems will apply various techniques to minimize this effect.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Azimuth Coverage: Azimuth is the horizontal coverage angle for radar. Typical ranges for a system are from 90 degrees to 360 degrees. For less than 360 degrees, multiple radars can be used to deliver a wider angle and larger coverage area.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Vertical Angle: The vertical angle of a radar tends to get overlooked. Many radars on the market have a narrow vertical angle, between 10-30 degrees, leading to potentially significant blind spots in vertical coverage. While a 90-degree vertical coverage is not usually needed, 40-80 degree detection is considered desirable.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">2D vs 3D: 3D radar has several advantages over 2D, most notably, it provides elevation data on the drone. Also, it reduces clutter by filtering objects past certain heights and aids in eliminating ground- based false alarms.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Frequency Bands: Counterdrone radar bands include X-band (also commonly used on boats), K-band (originally used for self-driving cars but adapted for counterdrone), Ku-band and S-band (common with military deployments). The band used also influences the size of the radar. As an example, K-band radars typically offer smaller form factors.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Moving vs Fixed Panel: Depending on the use case fewer moving parts may be preferable, as this reduces wear and tear and the potential for damage. Some radars can be used in both “staring” and spinning mode, with staring mode providing better performance but a reduced coverage angle.</p></li></ul><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--custom" style="color: #FFFFFF">Radar Transmission Modes</span></p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Drone detection radars can utilize different technical approaches. Radars used in counterdrone solutions use one of the following three techniques: Pulse (active), Continuous Wave (active), and Passive mode. Each approach has different characteristics that might have advantages or disadvantages during operations depending on the requirements.</p><ul data-rte-list="default"><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Active Radar - Pulse: Transmits a very short, but high-power pulse and waits for the reflected echo from the target. The performance is influenced by the duration of the transmitted pulses and the echo receiving time window. The shorter pulse duration results in a higher range resolution. Consequently, pulse radars are generally designed for long distances.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Active Radar - Continuous Wave: These radars continuously transmit an illumination signal and simultaneously receives echo reflections. A moving object’s speed and trajectory can be determined by observing its frequency shift, as seen at the receiver, due to the Doppler effect. Continuous wave systems are not able to perform range measurements without including a timing reference in the transmitted signal.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Passive Radar: Makes use of existing environmental broadcast, communication or radio-navigation transmission signals to detect the presence of objects in the receiver monitoring area. The system transmitter and receiver are at separate locations and the user only has control of the receivers. Potential illumination signals that could be used for UAS detection include FM, DVB, GSM, GNSS or WIFI.

A multi-sensor system will incorporate several or all of these into an integrated solution, providing multiple “layers” of detection. These layers can provide a more effective solution against diverse UAS threats as combining sensors often mitigates potential capability gaps of any single method. The inclusion of multiple sensors makes for a more comprehensive and complex system, however, can lead to a higher cost solution when compared to single method solutions.<br><br>More-exotic detection sensors exist, such as light detection and ranging or LiDAR, with limited application of as-yet-unproven effectiveness. There is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ counterdrone solution, and the role of the counter-UAS manufacturers and providers is to stay ahead of the constantly evolving commercial UAS technology.</p> </div> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-0f33ac505738df834b10"><div class="sqs-block image-block sqs-block-image sqs-stretched" data-aspect-ratio="80.17253246455283" data-block-type="5" id="block-0f33ac505738df834b10"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class=" image-block-outer-wrapper layout-caption-below design-layout-fluid image-position-center combination-animation-site-default individual-animation-site-default " data-test="image-block-fluid-outer-wrapper" > <div class="fluid-image-animation-wrapper sqs-image sqs-block-alignment-wrapper" data-animation-role="image" > <div class="fluid-image-container sqs-image-content" style="overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black);position: relative;width: 100%;height: 100%;" > <div class="content-fill"> <img data-stretch="true" data-src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465138-4BG1HKP08JULVN715GPV/Sentry-360.png" data-image="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465138-4BG1HKP08JULVN715GPV/Sentry-360.png" data-image-dimensions="1200x627" data-image-focal-point="0.5,0.5" alt="a multi-sensor detection system" data-load="false" elementtiming="system-image-block" src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465138-4BG1HKP08JULVN715GPV/Sentry-360.png" width="1200" height="627" alt="" sizes="100vw" style="display:block;object-fit: cover; object-position: 50% 50%" srcset="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465138-4BG1HKP08JULVN715GPV/Sentry-360.png?format=100w 100w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465138-4BG1HKP08JULVN715GPV/Sentry-360.png?format=300w 300w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465138-4BG1HKP08JULVN715GPV/Sentry-360.png?format=500w 500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465138-4BG1HKP08JULVN715GPV/Sentry-360.png?format=750w 750w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465138-4BG1HKP08JULVN715GPV/Sentry-360.png?format=1000w 1000w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465138-4BG1HKP08JULVN715GPV/Sentry-360.png?format=1500w 1500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465138-4BG1HKP08JULVN715GPV/Sentry-360.png?format=2500w 2500w" loading="lazy" decoding="async" data-loader="sqs"> <div class="fluidImageOverlay"></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <style> .sqs-block-image .sqs-block-content { height: 100%; width: 100%; } .fe-block-0f33ac505738df834b10 .fluidImageOverlay { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; mix-blend-mode: normal; opacity: 0; } </style> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-19bcd10e69f120e25a74"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-blend-mode="NORMAL" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-19bcd10e69f120e25a74"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Image: DroneShield’s DroneSentry Multi-sensor detection system</p> </div> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-8c08b8451e576b1ab5ed"><div class="sqs-block horizontalrule-block sqs-block-horizontalrule" data-block-type="47" id="block-8c08b8451e576b1ab5ed"><div class="sqs-block-content"><hr /></div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-b7bd9022b96f5608e8f6"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-blend-mode="NORMAL" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-b7bd9022b96f5608e8f6"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <h4 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--accent">Defeat Methods</span></h4><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Defeat and mitigation solutions available in the counterdrone space today include both “soft-kill” and “hard-kill” (or kinetic) solutions. Soft-kill solutions involve methods that do not intentionally damage the UAS physically. Soft-kill methods include RF jamming or UAS “hacking”.<br><br>Hard-kill solutions physically affect the UAS with another object, projectile or directed energy. These solutions range from UAS seeking UAS, to kinetic solutions such as lasers and ammunition.<br><br>Soft-kill solutions typically carry less risk of collateral damage due to their non-kinetic nature and are more subtle and discreet in operation. As a result, hard-kill and kinetic methods are reserved for government use, and almost exclusively for military and federal-level use, with few exceptions.

RF Jamming Technology</span></p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">RF jammers transmit on the same frequency as a UAS uses to communicate with the controller or operator. When the jamming signal is stronger at the UAS than the controller’s signal to the drone, the UAS loses its connection and is forced into a pre-set emergency protocol to fly back to its starting point, hover or land.<br><br>Group 1 and 2 UAS communicate within known, unallocated frequency bands such as 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz. The UAS uses these frequencies to communicate with its controller and for First-Person View (FPV) video. UAS manufacturers are required to remain within the unallocated spectrum. Other less-common commercially used RF frequency bands include 433 MHz and 915 MHz ISM.<br><br>Jammer design may be directional or omni-directional (360-degree). Omni-directional jamming provides broader defeat coverage, while directional or sector-based solutions offer more precision and mitigate unintended interference.<br><br>Safety certifications are critical for jamming equipment. Cheaper equipment may expose the operator to sufficient RF energy to risk health over time (similar to some early C-IED equipment). Always insist on receiving safety certifications from accredited lab testing providers for any jamming equipment.<br><br>Jammers can integrate with the RF detection device—as one single device sharing the same antennas—producing a compact fully integrated detect-and-defeat solution.<br><br>While not a panacea for all possible drone-types, jamming is by far the most economical means of countering UAS. This means it is able to be fielded in much larger numbers to tactical level units, rather than being limited to specialist organizations.</p> </div> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-59a0828c83cb808e3d09"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-blend-mode="NORMAL" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-59a0828c83cb808e3d09"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--custom" style="color: #FFFFFF">2.

Commercial and consumer UAS frequently come with multiple GNSS capabilities.<br><br>If jamming a drone’s RF frequency, it may still utilize GNSS to fly back to its point of origin or continue along a pre-programmed navigation path. By jamming both the RF and GNSS, the UAS is severed from its communication and navigation links and cannot fly home or continue its pre-programmed flight path. Based on the drone’s capability, it may attempt to land once jammed or hover until it’s batteries drain.</p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><br><span class="sqsrte-text-color--custom" style="color: #FFFFFF">3. Spoofing, Protocol Manipulation and Cyber</span></p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Spoofing or “hacking” involves a form of protocol manipulation. This method includes mimicking the controller and gaining control of the drone while acting as the controller. When successful, this defeat method allows the system to direct or reroute the UAS, which can be beneficial, especially for specific use cases. Spoofing can also include spoofing the GNSS signal, effectively misguiding the direction of the UAS.<br><br>A significant limitation of this approach is that the same or similar spoofing techniques are ineffective against all UAS, so there is always a risk of having a “hole” in the protection system. Even effective strategies are susceptible to software updates made by the UAS manufacturer or sophisticated UAS operators.<br><br>Notably, there have been false claims that protocol manipulation is legal for use. This is untrue, as it runs against the U.S. Wiretapping Act and other related legislation in the U.S. and globally.<br>Protocol manipulation/cyber and jamming are treated similarly under regulatory bodies insofar as they can be used only by Federal Government agencies under permissible circumstances.</p><p class="sqsrte-small" data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"></p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--custom" style="color: #FFFFFF">4.

Counter-Drone Countermeasures</span></p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">With the continuous rise of UAS and C-UAS in military applications, there is an increasing focus on stealthy UAS that can resist defeat. Drones achieve RF stealth by neither taking instructions from the pilot nor sending any information back (such as location or sensor feeds). This is uncommon and sacrifices material capabilities (such as the inability to share recorded data or control payload release).<br><br>To achieve radar stealth, the UAS would need to remain motionless (as the radar is a motion tracker), without spinning blades while hovering (as radar can pick on the micro-doppler effect of the blades). This makes “radar stealth” very challenging for COTS UAS within commercial price brackets.<br><br>Regarding resisting defeat, designing a jammer-resistant UAS is challenging because of the need for control by the pilot or via satellite/GNSS. With both jammed, the UAS would need to rely on other technologies such as inertial navigation, which are at very early stages today for the requirements of UAS flights.</p> </div> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-e268e910ecdd82be319a"><div class="sqs-block image-block sqs-block-image sqs-stretched" data-aspect-ratio="80.17253246455283" data-block-type="5" id="block-e268e910ecdd82be319a"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class=" image-block-outer-wrapper layout-caption-below design-layout-fluid image-position-center combination-animation-site-default individual-animation-site-default " data-test="image-block-fluid-outer-wrapper" > <div class="fluid-image-animation-wrapper sqs-image sqs-block-alignment-wrapper" data-animation-role="image" > <div class="fluid-image-container sqs-image-content" style="overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black);position: relative;width: 100%;height: 100%;" > <div class="content-fill"> <img data-stretch="true" data-src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465144-QWCGW3JMZG7NO9F1XS76/DSC_3175+1.png" data-image="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465144-QWCGW3JMZG7NO9F1XS76/DSC_3175+1.png" data-image-dimensions="918x657" data-image-focal-point="0.5,0.5" alt="a man wearing a helmet and goggles holding a machine gun" data-load="false" elementtiming="system-image-block" src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465144-QWCGW3JMZG7NO9F1XS76/DSC_3175+1.png" width="918" height="657" alt="" sizes="100vw" style="display:block;object-fit: cover;

However, much like many systems hardened against conventional attacks, they have vulnerabilities against small drones, as demonstrated in Nagorno-Karabakh and Ukraine.<br><br>Traditional small-caliber rounds have proven ineffective for counter-drone. A manually aimed attack will expend thousands of rounds while likely failing to neutralize a small, highly maneuverable drone further than a few hundred meters away, while tunnel-visioning on the drone and percussively divulging location to everyone nearby. A burst of well-aimed 30mm proximity rounds could be an effective, albeit expensive, answer, but it assumes that the crew detects the drone before it is above their firing arcs.<br><br>Large, armored vehicles are often unaware they have been geo-located until being hit without warning. A near-peer enemy will attack with Close Air Support or artillery; an asymmetric actor might swarm with DJI Phantoms armed with shaped charges or similar munitions. Commercial drones have many options for attack, but they typically come in very high and stay above the firing arcs. While DJI software limits the very affordable “Phantom 4” to 500 meters, the limit is easily disabled to capitalize on its service ceiling of 6,000 meters (or higher, with aftermarket communication range extenders such as DragonLink and RMILEC).<br><br>Counter-drone systems are beginning to appear more frequently on the battlefield for their ability to ‘listen out’ around the clock and identify expected or unexpected threats before reaching dangerous proximity. These systems—compact and sparing of precious vehicle real estate—are built with sensors that sweep the airspace around a vehicle to detect, classify and locate drones; then use either jamming defeat (especially overhead), or, when needed, kinetic defeat to mitigate the drone.<br><br>One such system is the DroneSentry-X, a fully integrated AI-based detect-identify-locate solution (with optional defeat).</p> </div> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-82bcccb7c3d3ade605c5"><div class="sqs-block image-block sqs-block-image sqs-stretched" data-aspect-ratio="54.13062985661645" data-block-type="5" id="block-82bcccb7c3d3ade605c5"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class=" image-block-outer-wrapper layout-caption-below design-layout-fluid image-position-center combination-animation-site-default individual-animation-site-default " data-test="image-block-fluid-outer-wrapper" > <div class="fluid-image-animation-wrapper sqs-image sqs-block-alignment-wrapper" data-animation-role="image" > <div class="fluid-image-container sqs-image-content" style="overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black);position: relative;width: 100%;height: 100%;" > <div class="content-fill"> <img data-stretch="true" data-src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465155-1R0FQCWG2SZTQ7FL5NJ8/DSC_3175+1.png" data-image="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465155-1R0FQCWG2SZTQ7FL5NJ8/DSC_3175+1.png" data-image-dimensions="1531x1021" data-image-focal-point="0.5,0.5" alt="a military vehicle driving down a dirt road" data-load="false" elementtiming="system-image-block" src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465155-1R0FQCWG2SZTQ7FL5NJ8/DSC_3175+1.png" width="1531" height="1021" alt="" sizes="100vw" style="display:block;object-fit: cover; object-position: 50% 50%" srcset="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465155-1R0FQCWG2SZTQ7FL5NJ8/DSC_3175+1.png?format=100w 100w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465155-1R0FQCWG2SZTQ7FL5NJ8/DSC_3175+1.png?format=300w 300w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465155-1R0FQCWG2SZTQ7FL5NJ8/DSC_3175+1.png?format=500w 500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465155-1R0FQCWG2SZTQ7FL5NJ8/DSC_3175+1.png?format=750w 750w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465155-1R0FQCWG2SZTQ7FL5NJ8/DSC_3175+1.png?format=1000w 1000w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465155-1R0FQCWG2SZTQ7FL5NJ8/DSC_3175+1.png?format=1500w 1500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465155-1R0FQCWG2SZTQ7FL5NJ8/DSC_3175+1.png?format=2500w 2500w" loading="lazy" decoding="async" data-loader="sqs"> <div class="fluidImageOverlay"></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <style> .sqs-block-image .sqs-block-content { height: 100%; width: 100%; } .fe-block-82bcccb7c3d3ade605c5 .fluidImageOverlay { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; mix-blend-mode: normal; opacity: 0; } </style> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-b78b0d26fc71b8610d8c"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-blend-mode="NORMAL" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-b78b0d26fc71b8610d8c"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Image: DroneSentry-X offers real-time hemispheric 360-degree situational awareness and response capability on the move, with the flexibility to counter detected drones automatically or with an operator in the loop.

A one-size-fits-all solution could easily be either overkill, or inadequate to the nature of the threat. A peacetime domestic base concerned with protecting itself from nuisance or surveillance drone overflights would not need the same counterdrone protection as a wartime Forward Operating Base. However, it needs a similar architecture, so personnel have the training and the ability to forward deploy on short notice (noting that domestic base security in Australia is mainly outsourced, unlike forward deployments).<br><br>Therefore, an open and modular drone-protection platform provides the flexibility to match the protection to any specific threat level. </p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><br>For example:</p><ul data-rte-list="default"><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">An expectation of fully autonomous drones could demand inclusion of radar and/or AI-based thermo-optical sensors to supplement RF sensors.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">An environment with nearby civilian infrastructure, such as within an urban area, would demand precise zone-based alerting and response to prevent nuisance false alarms from, for example, drone flights in nearby public parks.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">An environment without nearby civilian infrastructure could be a candidate for including kinetic countermeasures.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">If swarming drones are a threat, robust RF disruption could be required to mitigate.</p></li><li><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Multiple, layered levels of RF and kinetic disruption could be provisioned for the highest threat profile sites to ensure effective drone mitigation.</p></li></ul><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">As counterdrone technology is in a state of constant advancement, investment protection (i.e., futureproofing) via modularity and open architecture are key. Any solutions should integrate seamlessly with complementary technologies and systems (such as base-security systems, a counterdrone Systems of Systems, and/or extant sensors) and rapidly incorporate ongoing innovations, maintaining superiority over the rapid-and-ongoing evolution of the drone threat.</p> </div> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-0909e1fe55212c6a4b3c"><div class="sqs-block image-block sqs-block-image sqs-stretched" data-block-type="5" id="block-0909e1fe55212c6a4b3c"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class=" image-block-outer-wrapper layout-caption-below design-layout-fluid image-position-center combination-animation-site-default individual-animation-site-default " data-test="image-block-fluid-outer-wrapper" > <div class="fluid-image-animation-wrapper sqs-image sqs-block-alignment-wrapper" data-animation-role="image" > <div class="fluid-image-container sqs-image-content" style="overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black);position: relative;width: 100%;height: 100%;" > <div class="content-fit"> <img data-stretch="false" data-src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465158-QL73VVDKNM09U8TFXBAS/Frame+193.png" data-image="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465158-QL73VVDKNM09U8TFXBAS/Frame+193.png" data-image-dimensions="1184x1171" data-image-focal-point="0.5,0.5" alt="a drone setup in the middle of a field" data-load="false" elementtiming="system-image-block" src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465158-QL73VVDKNM09U8TFXBAS/Frame+193.png" width="1184" height="1171" alt="" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, (max-width: 767px) 100vw, 41.66666666666667vw" style="display:block;object-fit: contain; object-position: 50% 50%" srcset="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465158-QL73VVDKNM09U8TFXBAS/Frame+193.png?format=100w 100w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465158-QL73VVDKNM09U8TFXBAS/Frame+193.png?format=300w 300w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465158-QL73VVDKNM09U8TFXBAS/Frame+193.png?format=500w 500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465158-QL73VVDKNM09U8TFXBAS/Frame+193.png?format=750w 750w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465158-QL73VVDKNM09U8TFXBAS/Frame+193.png?format=1000w 1000w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465158-QL73VVDKNM09U8TFXBAS/Frame+193.png?format=1500w 1500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/660a32624c94dd36e509baf3/1711944465158-QL73VVDKNM09U8TFXBAS/Frame+193.png?format=2500w 2500w" loading="lazy" decoding="async" data-loader="sqs"> <div class="fluidImageOverlay"></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <style> .sqs-block-image .sqs-block-content { height: 100%; width: 100%; } .fe-block-0909e1fe55212c6a4b3c .fluidImageOverlay { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; mix-blend-mode: normal; opacity: 0; } </style> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-6b8e6bbd43de9ae0b3e4"><div class="sqs-block horizontalrule-block sqs-block-horizontalrule" data-block-type="47" id="block-6b8e6bbd43de9ae0b3e4"><div class="sqs-block-content"><hr /></div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-f899f3959680adc4584b"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-blend-mode="NORMAL" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-f899f3959680adc4584b"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <h4 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--accent">Counterdrone in Integrated Soldier Systems</span></h4><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Individual warfighters are uniquely vulnerable to drones. In recent conflicts we have seen drones deliver small ordnance (such as grenades) directly onto unsuspecting warfighters.

Timelines and restrictions are other factors as these technologies often result from multi-year development programs funded by the customer, and therefore can be subject to restrictions for export or commercial use.</span></p> </div> <style> #block-76bfbfe7c806f48bde81 { box-sizing: border-box; height: 100%; padding: 3% 3% 3% 3%; border-radius: 0px 0px 0px 0px; --tweak-text-block-background-color: hsla(var(--lightAccent-hsl), 1) ; } </style> </div></div></div><div class="fe-block fe-block-3b308a458b820e6a5801"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html sqs-background-enabled" data-blend-mode="NORMAL" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-3b308a458b820e6a5801"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <h4 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--accent">3 - Established Small Businesses</span></h4><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--custom" style="color: #FFFFFF">In the middle are companies that have survived their startup growing pains, have industry expertise in a relevant area, and can offer the agility of a dynamic team.

Capable companies in this space should offer that desired balance of counterdrone focus and agility, which are both needed to field superior solutions.<br></span></p><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span class="sqsrte-text-color--custom" style="color: #FFFFFF">Growth looks different for every company, therefore, established small businesses present various levels of product maturity, quality control, customer support, and most importantly, in-house counterdrone development expertise. Things to consider when evaluating counter-UAS providers are; their engineering team and capability, more than a single product or solution, and vision and evidence of future product development. The company’s ability to scale production, support deployed solutions, and meet customers’ unique requirements are also imperative for a successful solution and the success of your counterdrone operations.</span></p> </div> <style> #block-3b308a458b820e6a5801 { box-sizing: border-box; height: 100%; padding: 3% 3% 3% 3%; border-radius: 0px 0px 0px 0px; --tweak-text-block-background-color: hsla(var(--lightAccent-hsl), 1) ; } </style> </div></div></div></div></div> </div> </div> </section> <section data-test="page-section" data-section-theme="" class='page-section full-bleed-section layout-engine-section background-width--full-bleed section-height--small content-width--wide horizontal-alignment--center vertical-alignment--middle ' data-section-id="660a33114c94dd36e509d78d" data-controller="SectionWrapperController" data-current-styles="{ "imageOverlayOpacity": 0.15, "backgroundWidth": "background-width--full-bleed", "sectionHeight": "section-height--small", "customSectionHeight": 1, "horizontalAlignment": "horizontal-alignment--center", "verticalAlignment": "vertical-alignment--middle", "contentWidth": "content-width--wide", "customContentWidth": 50, "backgroundColor": "", "sectionTheme": "", "sectionAnimation": "none", "backgroundMode": "image" }" data-current-context="{ "video": { "playbackSpeed": 0.5, "filter": 1, "filterStrength": 0, "zoom": 0, "videoSourceProvider": "none" }, "backgroundImageId": null, "backgroundMediaEffect": { "type": "none" }, "divider": { "enabled": false }, "typeName": "page" }" data-animation="none" data-fluid-engine-section > <div class="section-border" > <div class="section-background"> </div> </div> <div class='content-wrapper' style=' ' > <div class="content" > <div data-fluid-engine="true"><style> .fe-660a33114c94dd36e509d78c { --grid-gutter: calc(var(--sqs-mobile-site-gutter, 6vw) - 11.0px); --cell-max-width: calc( ( var(--sqs-site-max-width, 1500px) - (11.0px * (8 - 1)) ) / 8 ); display: grid; position: relative; grid-area: 1/1/-1/-1; grid-template-rows: repeat(30,minmax(24px, auto)); grid-template-columns: minmax(var(--grid-gutter), 1fr) repeat(8, minmax(0, var(--cell-max-width))) minmax(var(--grid-gutter), 1fr); row-gap: 11.0px; column-gap: 11.0px; } @media (min-width: 768px) { .background-width--inset .fe-660a33114c94dd36e509d78c { --inset-padding: calc(var(--sqs-site-gutter) * 2); } .fe-660a33114c94dd36e509d78c { --grid-gutter: calc(var(--sqs-site-gutter, 4vw) - 11.0px); --cell-max-width: calc( ( var(--sqs-site-max-width, 1500px) - (11.0px * (24 - 1)) ) / 24 ); --inset-padding: 0vw; --row-height-scaling-factor: 0.0215; --container-width: min(var(--sqs-site-max-width, 1500px), calc(100vw - var(--sqs-site-gutter, 4vw) * 2 - var(--inset-padding) )); grid-template-rows: repeat(10,minmax(calc(var(--container-width) * var(--row-height-scaling-factor)), auto)); grid-template-columns: minmax(var(--grid-gutter), 1fr) repeat(24, minmax(0, var(--cell-max-width))) minmax(var(--grid-gutter), 1fr); } } .fe-block-8ee1cfd70daf0230206b { grid-area: 1/2/31/10; z-index: 1; @media (max-width: 767px) { } } .fe-block-8ee1cfd70daf0230206b .sqs-block { justify-content: center; } .fe-block-8ee1cfd70daf0230206b .sqs-block-alignment-wrapper { align-items: center; } @media (min-width: 768px) { .fe-block-8ee1cfd70daf0230206b { grid-area: 1/3/11/25; z-index: 1; } .fe-block-8ee1cfd70daf0230206b .sqs-block { justify-content: center; } .fe-block-8ee1cfd70daf0230206b .sqs-block-alignment-wrapper { align-items: center; } } </style><div class="fluid-engine fe-660a33114c94dd36e509d78c"><div class="fe-block fe-block-8ee1cfd70daf0230206b"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-blend-mode="NORMAL" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-8ee1cfd70daf0230206b"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <h2 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>5. Legal and Compliance Considerations</strong></h2><p class="sqsrte-small" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Laws surrounding purchase and use of counterdrone equipment are continuing to evolve, attempting to keep up with the developments of the drone technology. There are various laws and regulations to consider around drones, drone use and counterdrone technology. The applicable laws vary significantly between different locations and organizations and are subject to change and evolution. In the US, the most relevant restrictions are around FCC and FAA.<br><br>The FCC regulations stipulate how much energy can be emitted from various equipment at various frequency bands, and generally radars and jammers (as well as cyber/protocol manipulation) falls within their coverage. This means either a license is needed (the common approach with radars), or the FCC regulations need not to apply to a particular user in a given situation – such as military, DOJ or FBI in certain situations. As a basic rule, jammers (or protocol manipulation/cyber) are off-limits to individuals, corporations, state and local Government agencies (however drone detection equipment can still be used by them). Outside of the US, similar rules are in place by Ofcom (UK) and ACMA (Australia).<br><br>The FAA regulations essentially treat a drone like any full-size aircraft, and prohibit ‘downing’ of the drones by private citizens, in the same way as downing of the full size aircraft is not allowed- therefore limiting the defeat to military and federal Government agencies.<br><br>Export and import provisions may also apply, depending on where the equipment is made, where it’s going to, and whether it’s considered for military-civilian dual use or military-grade article. In the US, the relevant restrictions are around USML (Munitions List) classifications, whether the products are ITAR-grade, ECCN, EAR99 or other classification. An experienced counterdrone manufacturer can work with the customer to ensure compliance with the export control laws.</p> </div> </div></div></div></div></div> </div> </div> </section> <section data-test="page-section" data-section-theme="dark" class='page-section full-bleed-section layout-engine-section background-width--full-bleed section-height--small content-width--wide horizontal-alignment--center vertical-alignment--middle dark' data-section-id="660a33114c94dd36e509d790" data-controller="SectionWrapperController" data-current-styles="{ "imageOverlayOpacity": 0.15, "backgroundWidth": "background-width--full-bleed", "sectionHeight": "section-height--small", "customSectionHeight": 1, "horizontalAlignment": "horizontal-alignment--center", "verticalAlignment": "vertical-alignment--middle", "contentWidth": "content-width--wide", "customContentWidth": 50, "backgroundColor": "", "sectionTheme": "dark", "sectionAnimation": "none", "backgroundMode": "image" }" data-current-context="{ "video": { "playbackSpeed": 0.5, "filter": 1, "filterStrength": 0, "zoom": 0, "videoSourceProvider": "none" }, "backgroundImageId": null, "backgroundMediaEffect": { "type": "none" }, "divider": { "enabled": false }, "typeName": "page" }" data-animation="none" data-fluid-engine-section > <div class="section-border" > <div class="section-background"> </div> </div> <div class='content-wrapper' style=' ' > <div class="content" > <div data-fluid-engine="true"><style> .fe-660a33114c94dd36e509d78f { --grid-gutter: calc(var(--sqs-mobile-site-gutter, 6vw) - 11.0px); --cell-max-width: calc( ( var(--sqs-site-max-width, 1500px) - (11.0px * (8 - 1)) ) / 8 ); display: grid; position: relative; grid-area: 1/1/-1/-1; grid-template-rows: repeat(31,minmax(24px, auto)); grid-template-columns: minmax(var(--grid-gutter), 1fr) repeat(8, minmax(0, var(--cell-max-width))) minmax(var(--grid-gutter), 1fr); row-gap: 11.0px; column-gap: 11.0px; } @media (min-width: 768px) { .background-width--inset .fe-660a33114c94dd36e509d78f { --inset-padding: calc(var(--sqs-site-gutter) * 2); } .fe-660a33114c94dd36e509d78f { --grid-gutter: calc(var(--sqs-site-gutter, 4vw) - 11.0px); --cell-max-width: calc( ( var(--sqs-site-max-width, 1500px) - (11.0px * (24 - 1)) ) / 24 ); --inset-padding: 0vw; --row-height-scaling-factor: 0.0215; --container-width: min(var(--sqs-site-max-width, 1500px), calc(100vw - var(--sqs-site-gutter, 4vw) * 2 - var(--inset-padding) )); grid-template-rows: repeat(13,minmax(calc(var(--container-width) * var(--row-height-scaling-factor)), auto)); grid-template-columns: minmax(var(--grid-gutter), 1fr) repeat(24, minmax(0, var(--cell-max-width))) minmax(var(--grid-gutter), 1fr); } } .fe-block-08c8906ee74632a77d28 { grid-area: 1/2/30/10; z-index: 1; @media (max-width: 767px) { } } .fe-block-08c8906ee74632a77d28 .sqs-block { justify-content: flex-start; } .fe-block-08c8906ee74632a77d28 .sqs-block-alignment-wrapper { align-items: flex-start; } @media (min-width: 768px) { .fe-block-08c8906ee74632a77d28 { grid-area: 1/3/14/18; z-index: 1; } .fe-block-08c8906ee74632a77d28 .sqs-block { justify-content: flex-start; } .fe-block-08c8906ee74632a77d28 .sqs-block-alignment-wrapper { align-items: flex-start; } } .fe-block-b7fb19787a6ea96f9fcc { grid-area: 30/2/32/10; z-index: 2; @media (max-width: 767px) { } } .fe-block-b7fb19787a6ea96f9fcc .sqs-block { justify-content: flex-start; } .fe-block-b7fb19787a6ea96f9fcc .sqs-block-alignment-wrapper { align-items: flex-start; } @media (min-width: 768px) { .fe-block-b7fb19787a6ea96f9fcc { grid-area: 1/19/12/25; z-index: 2; } .fe-block-b7fb19787a6ea96f9fcc .sqs-block { justify-content: flex-start; } .fe-block-b7fb19787a6ea96f9fcc .sqs-block-alignment-wrapper { align-items: flex-start; } } </style><div class="fluid-engine fe-660a33114c94dd36e509d78f"><div class="fe-block fe-block-08c8906ee74632a77d28"><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-blend-mode="NORMAL" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-08c8906ee74632a77d28"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <h2 style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>6.
