Problem
Hostile drones can threaten critical infrastructure, military installations, and large public events, yet existing counter‑UAS solutions often struggle to detect, track, and engage multiple threats simultaneously in real time.
Solution
Hornbill’s Kinetic C‑UAS Swarm provides a coordinated counter‑UAS system that autonomously detects, tracks, and neutralizes hostile drones using swarm intelligence. The platform integrates with existing radar and sensor networks, allowing it to ingest data from legacy detection assets and streamline threat mitigation workflows. By leveraging a distributed swarm of interceptors, the system can engage several drones at once, delivering rapid response and reducing the risk of collateral damage. The solution is designed for deployment in high‑risk environments such as critical infrastructure sites, military bases, and large public gatherings, where fast, reliable drone neutralization is essential.
Target Audience
Primary customers are operators of critical infrastructure, military base security teams, and organizers of large public events who require robust, multi‑threat counter‑UAS capabilities.
