Problem
Modern military and security forces face increasing threats from hostile unmanned aerial systems (UAS) that can conduct surveillance, deliver payloads, or disrupt operations. Existing counter‑UAS solutions often rely on foreign‑origin components, require extensive infrastructure, or need continuous operator presence, limiting rapid, sovereign response in contested environments.
Solution
Counter‑Drone Systems offers a sovereign‑grade counter‑UAS platform designed for European defense requirements. The system includes a lightweight interceptor drone paired with a man‑portable launch station (MANPAD variant) that enables an operator to designate a target before the drone autonomously engages and neutralizes the threat. A stationary remote launcher variant keeps the interceptor drone battery‑ready for immediate launch from concealed positions without an on‑site operator, providing continuous readiness and rapid reaction. Both configurations are engineered and manufactured in Germany to ensure supply‑chain independence and compliance with European security standards. The solution delivers a compact, field‑deployable capability that can be integrated into existing air‑defense workflows and operated by small teams.
Target Audience
Primary customers are European armed forces, border and critical‑infrastructure security agencies, and NATO-aligned units that require independent, rapid counter‑UAS capabilities.
