Honeywell is launching a new Stationary and Mobile UAS Reveal And Intercept system to counter swarm drones.
By combining beyond-visual-line-of-sight communication with command-and-control capabilities, the multi-layered system is able to detect, track and then counter drone swarms. It can be equipped on vehicles or fixed-based platforms to protect valuable assets.
The U.S. Air Force Global Strike team via STRIKEWERX/AFWERX recently selected Honeywell’s Stationary And Mobile UAS Reveal And Intercept system to demonstrate the protection of high-value assets from swarm drones while on the move. The demonstration will take place in January 2025.
“Modern warfare is rapidly changing and the threat swarm drones pose to high-value assets can have a devastating effect on military operations,” said Matt Milas, president, Defense and Space, Honeywell Aerospace Technologies. “Our Stationary And Mobile UAS Reveal And Intercept system is a highly reliable, scalable and fully integrated defensive system that has been developed after extensive research and testing with the needs of military operators in mind. This system’s multi-layered defensive capabilities set it apart in the industry and enable it to not only track and detect, but also defeat multiple threats. We’re excited to demonstrate this technology for the Air Force and are confident the system can provide critical new capabilities on the battlefield.”
The system has been developed by integrating components from defence manufacturers such as Blue Halo, Leonardo DRS, Pierce Aerospace, Silent Sentinel, Walaris, Rocky Research and Versatol. The components include radio frequency detection with sensor technology that uses light to detect, track and identify objects as well as offensive drones to counter swarms.
