A new system designed by British Companies to take down Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) – drones. The war against drones just started!
AUDS (Anti-UAV Defence System) is designed to disrupt and neutralise Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), engaged in hostile airborne surveillance.
The system combines electronic-scanning radar target detection, electro-optical (EO) tracking/classification and directional RF inhibition capability.
The AUDS Team brings together three leading British companies, each with the unique capabilities required to create an effective counter UAV system. Blighter’s A400 series air security radars are able to DETECT small UAVs in all weather conditions, 24 hours a day. The Chess Dynamics Hawkeye EO/IR camera system, with state-of-the-art video tracking technology, is able to TRACK the UAV and, combined with radar target information, classify the target. The operator is then able to make a timely and informed decision to use the Enterprise Control Systems (‘ECS’), smart RF inhibitor to selectively interfere with the C2 channels on the UAV allowing the system to DISRUPT the UAV’s mission.
