Problem
Modern battlefields face increasing threats from hostile unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that can conduct surveillance, deliver munitions, or overwhelm traditional air‑defense assets. Existing counter‑UAV solutions often lack the speed, endurance, or flexibility needed to engage fast‑moving drones effectively.
Solution
GAARPIA offers a high‑performance anti‑drone weapon system built around a loitering munition that can autonomously launch, patrol for up to 90 minutes, and intercept enemy UAVs at attack speeds of up to 220 km/h. Its compact design and modular payload architecture allow operators to tailor the munition for different threat profiles, while advanced flight control provides high maneuverability for precise engagements. The system can be deployed from ground platforms without extensive infrastructure, delivering rapid response capability against a wide range of hostile drones.
Target Audience
Primary customers are military and defense organizations that require dedicated counter‑UAV solutions for frontline units, air‑defense regiments, and rapid‑reaction forces.
