Air Defense as a Service (ADaaS)

Managed Counter-Drone Protection

Detection, tracking, response, and ongoing system operation for critical infrastructure, government buildings, military sites, and private-sector assets. Our team includes former Lockheed Martin/NASA engineers, bringing aerospace and defense systems experience to the design and deployment of each counter-drone architecture.

We assess the site, build the appropriate architecture, deploy the system, and operate it as an ongoing service - adapting to the local threat environment, operating requirements, and applicable laws.

Built to Adapt

A counter-drone system is only useful if it is operating, monitored, maintained, and ready when something happens. Our managed model covers the capability beyond the initial deployment, allowing the system to evolve as threats, technology, and mission requirements change.

Managed Cost Model

A predictable service model without requiring the customer to build and operate the entire capability internally.

Technology Updates

Software, sensors, configurations and hardware can evolve as the threat and mission change.

Operational Readiness

Monitoring, maintenance and readiness support keep the system operational when it is needed.

Detection, Disruption and Interception

Different sites require different layers of protection. We combine detection, electronic countermeasures and interception based on the threat, site and local requirements.

Detection & Tracking

Radar, optical, and acoustic sensors provide persistent airspace awareness and help operators identify, classify, and track potential threats.

  • Optical Tracking
  • Acoustic Sensors
  • 3D Radar Integration
  • Threat Classification

Electronic Warfare

Where permitted, electronic countermeasures can be used to disrupt drone communications or navigation and help prevent a threat from reaching the protected area.

  • RF Jamming
  • GNSS Countermeasures
  • Protocol Disruption
  • Directional & Omnidirectional Systems

Interception

Where authorized and appropriate to the threat, interceptor systems can be integrated to engage a drone before it reaches the protected area.

  • Interceptor Drones
  • Kinetic Effectors
  • Rapid Response
  • Integrated Guidance

Hard-Kill Interception

Where authorized and appropriate to the threat, close-range cannon effectors can provide a final defensive layer against drones approaching the protected area.

  • 35mm-class Cannon
  • Close-Range Defense
  • Remote Operation
  • Integrated Tracking

Jamming, interception and other active countermeasures are deployed only where permitted by applicable law and subject to the required regulatory and operational approvals.

Technology Agnostic. Built Around the Site.

We select the sensors, effectors and supporting systems that fit the site, threat and local requirements, then integrate them into a single operating environment. Where an off-the-shelf solution does not fit, we can develop or integrate the software and hardware required to close the gap.

System Architecture

Sensors. Fusion. Decision. Effect.

The architecture is built around the protected site rather than a fixed product list. Sensors feed a common operating picture, operators assess the threat, and the appropriate response layer is assigned.

01

Detect

Radar, EO/IR, RF and acoustic sensing.

02

Classify

Multi-sensor identification and threat assessment.

03

Track

Continuous track and situational awareness.

04

Decide

Operator and C2 evaluation of the appropriate response.

05

Respond

Jamming, interceptor, cannon, or other authorized effector.

Where We Deploy

We support private-sector operators, critical infrastructure, government organizations and military customers, with deployments designed around the site and its security requirements.

Managed Service

From Deployment to Daily Operations

From initial assessment through daily operations, maintenance and upgrades, we provide the operational layer around the counter-drone system.

01

Site Assessment & System Design

We assess the site, surrounding airspace, and expected threats before defining the system architecture.

02

Deployment & Integration

We install and integrate the required sensors, command systems, and countermeasures.

03

Monitoring & Response

Our operators monitor the system, investigate alerts, and coordinate the appropriate response.

04

Maintenance & Upgrades

We maintain the system, replace failed equipment, and introduce upgrades as requirements change.

What You Get

One Operational Service. Multiple Technology Layers.

We provide the people, processes and technical support required to keep the capability operational - without requiring the customer to build the full counter-drone function internally.
