DroneShield is pleased to release the DroneSentry-X Mk2 (“DroneSentry-X”), a multi-mission Counter-UAS solution for mobile and expeditionary fixed-site applications. The DroneSentry-X supports passive detection, identification, tracking of multi-domain unmanned (or uncrewed) systems. DroneSentry-X integrates DroneShield’s advanced multi-mission AI/ML technology, RFAI for passive, non-intrusive detection with its new electronic countermeasure (ECM) technology, RFAI-ATK (RFAI “Attack”) providing operators with the ability to detect, identify, track, and defeat (DITD) UxS from a single self-contained, intuitive system. DroneSentry-X Mk2 is the first platform in the Counter-UAS industry to offer RFAI-ATK.
The launch of DroneSentry-X follows extensive research and development incorporating end-user feedback on the primary feature sets, performance requirements, user interface, and interoperable must-haves. With interoperability in mind, the DroneSentry-X comes with an embedded RFAI user interface for local and tactical level situational awareness, while supporting Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) best practices for seamless integration with existing system of systems and third-party sensors, effectors, and command and control (C2) platforms. DroneSentry-X makes its debut this week at the Association of the United States Army Annual Meeting and Exposition (AUSA 2023) in Washington, DC. Initial deliveries under received orders will commence this month.
The DroneSentry-X Mk2 is suitable for mobile operations, field expedient pop-up, and fixed-site protection. It is a cost-effective solution with both detect and optional defeat capability within a single self-contained platform. Designed to be deployed in harsh environments, the DroneSentry-X Mk2 can be mounted to standard vehicle roof racks, on military vehicles, surface vessels, and unmanned mobile platforms. It can also be deployed as a permanent or fixed site install on standard tripod masts or towers, and supports local or remote operations. The DroneSentry-X Mk2 is supported by a web-based User Interface (UI) that enables operators to view real-time analytics of local detection activity with map overlay, while supporting user-defined options for either automatic or manual disruption.
DroneShield is an Australian/U.S. publicly listed company focusing on RF sensing, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Sensor Fusion, Electronic Warfare, Rapid Prototyping and MIL-SPEC manufacturing. The company commenced operations in 2014 in Virginia, USA, The team today is split between Sydney and Virginia, as our two home markets. In addition, we maintain a vibrant community of in-country partners in over 120 countries around the world, an important part of the team in today’s COVID era, with its travel cross-border restrictions. As the pioneer in the counterdrone market globally, we have rapidly grown with that sector as it continues to evolve. Along the way, DroneShield has expanded into adjacent areas such as Electronic Warfare and Signals Intelligence (SIGINT).
