UK’s Drone Defenders at the Ready
Drone Defence’s Drone Defenders are teams of counter drone specialists who have the training and equipment to protect up to 1km of airspace around a location ensuring it remains drone free. The Drone Defenders are experts in detecting an identifying problem drones and they come equipped with the latest anti drone technology with the Dynopis E1000MP and the Net Gun X1.
The Dynopis E1000MP is the UK’s first deployable man-portable drone jamming system. Using a focused barrage jamming capability it can stop the majority of commercially available drone systems. It uses electronic counter measures and GPS disruption to safely stop drones in the air before they can pose a threat. Once captured in the E1000MP’s ‘Electronic Web’ the drone returns to its launch location or lands under control in a safe area. It is an economical, simple to use point-and-press system with a range of up to 1km, so if you can see the drone then you can stop it.
The Net Gun X1 is a CO2 net firing device that shoots a net and physically captures the drone which causes it to fall to the ground under control or ensnares it once it has landed. By capturing the drone on the ground at a safe distance the Drone Defenders can ensure that it doesn’t take off again and pose a threat.
When called into action the Drone Defenders first conduct a Drone Security Assessment (DSA) of the area they have been charged to protect. During this assessment they look at the physical and human terrain to identify likely actors, launch locations and approach routes. They then develop a Concept of Operations for the client to approve. Next Drone Defence, working with its industry partners, designates the site as a ‘No Drone Zone’ and publicise this to the drone community. A Mitigation Action Plan is put in place to understand how and where the Drone Defenders would use their advanced equipment to protect the area.
Richard Gill, the Founder & CEO of Drone Defence said:
“The concept is to provide the complete counter drone solution to our customers in an economical way. Our clients can trust us to provide the latest technology to counter the drone threat meaning that they can concentrate on their business.”
He added:
“Our Drone Defenders provide the complete solution our clients are looking for. We can help create ‘No Drone Zones’ around anything from Football Matches to Airshows. We can also supply and train our clients on our advanced equipment.”
