Drone defence | Counter-UAS

highly mobile and flexible in use

Kinetic Defence Vehicle

effector type

kinetic (or hybrid through non-kinetic secondary armament)
mission

mobile, lightweight protection system for drone defence at short range (point defence)
functionality

Vehicle-based system for kinetic engagement of drones with main armament and secondary armament.

Protects highly mobile light forces, supply and command facilities as well as infrastructure in peacetime operations and armed conflict.
Effective and cost-efficient engagementl through possible effector mix
Main armament (Gatling gun) engages small targets up to 1500 meters of distance.
Secondary armament is used to defend against larger targets or for civilian use (non-lethal secondary effector)
Integrated detection, evaluation and engagement capability.
AI support for detection and identification. The decision is made by the operator.

effector type

non-kinetic
Mission

Drone defence through targeted disruption of the drone's electronics.
funktionality

HPEM directly affects the semiconductors of the control electronics inside the UAS by means short electromagnetic pulses.

In addition to military use, also suitable for civilian deployment scenarios (e.g. protection of major events, infrastructure)
Low collateral damage working principle
Effective against all kinds of commercial drones, incl. swarm attacks
Easy integration into various Command and Control systems
Installation into various stationary or mobile platforms possible
Combination of two key technologies (HPEM and Jamming) for a future proof installation
Soft kill and hard kill effects depending on the drone model and attack distance

scalable drone defence

effector type

kinetic (lethal with fragmentation warhead / non-lethal with safety net)
mission

Electrically propelled missile for the defence against hostile drones and loitering munitions.
functionality

Engagement of the target by warhead or safety net, after target guidance by ground sensors, data link and independent endgame through integrated seeker.

SKY SPHERE is modularly designed to combine sensors, effectors and command systems via standardized interfaces.
Various configurations enable versatile use: vehicle solution (integrated or stand-alone) or stationary as a container-based system for long-term protection of critical infrastructure.

Electrically propelled missile - especially developed for drone defence
CICADA operates in response to the threats caused by low-cost drones and drone swarms.
Flexible dual-use capability: lethal operation (fragmentation warhead) or non-lethal operation (safety net)
Reliable target designation through pre-instruction using ground sensors, target guidance via data link and independent endgame through integrated seeker.
