ELTA Systems enhances Drone Guard C-UAS
ELTA Systems has introduced a new and enhanced configuration of its Drone Guard C-UAS system which detects, identifies and disrupts the operation of UAS.
The new modular configuration has an added communication intelligence (COMINT) system for more precise detection, classification and identification based on broadcast frequency and unique communication protocol analysis and verification for neutralising threats.
The system can jam or disrupt the UAS' control channel and navigation, by supporting an array of communication protocols that can ‘fend off’ a single UAS or even a swarm of UAS from the guarded premises.
Drone Guard's 3D radars, EO and jammer systems have also been upgraded.
Yoav Tourgeman, IAI VP and CEO of ELTA, said: ‘The Drone Guard, with its new addition of COMINT capabilities, is a proven operational system for civilian and military applications that can meet the growing threats of hostile UAS and small drones.
‘ELTA designed the Drone Guard to be modular, so that customers can choose the best combination that meets their operational and budgetary requirements in the most cost-effective manner.’
