Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (CUAS)

Transforming multi-sensor data into actionable intelligence

Our CUAS platform fuses data from diverse sensors and systems like radar, RF, EO/IR, and external data into a unified operational picture that improves threat assessment. By correlating, classifying, and prioritizing threats in real time within C2 environments, our solutions reduce operator cognitive load, increase detection confidence, and enable faster, more effective decisions.

Core fusion and data integration capabilities include:

• Multi-sensor data fusion to correlate radar, RF, acoustic, and surveillance inputs
• Real-time data integration to feed C2 and multi-domain awareness systems
• Common operating picture to provide a unified, high-fidelity threat view
• AI/ML-enabled analytics to classify, prioritize, and support decisions
• Automated cue-to-slew and target tracking backed by advanced AI/ML models
• Custom AI/ML models for automated classification of target/tracks based on kinematics and visual identification
• Cross-domain data sharing to coordinate across agencies and mission partners

False-positive reduction to improve confidence through correlation and signal processing

Coordinated, mission-specific effects to defeat UAS threats

Our flexible, integrated response capabilities enable operators to disrupt, degrade, or defeat UAS threats using the most appropriate method for the mission. By coordinating kinetic and non-kinetic effects within a unified system, we ensure response actions are timely, precise, and aligned with operational constraints and rules of engagement.

Core response capabilities include:

• Electronic attack (EA), including Common Framework Environment (CFE)–enabled capabilities
• GNSS denial and spoofing to disrupt navigation and positioning
• RF-based disruption and deception to interfere with communications and control links
• Directed energy systems, including lasers and high-power microwave (HPM) technologies
• Kinetic defeat options for direct engagement when required
• Coordinated engagement workflows enabling rapid transition from detection to response

Scalable effects tailored to mission requirements, threat type, and operational environment

Turning intelligence into coordinated, multi-domain action

Our CUAS capabilities operate within a broader C5ISR architecture that connects sensing, decision-making, and response. By integrating fused sensor data with C2, communications, and cyber capabilities, we turn intelligence into coordinated action across distributed systems and mission partners, accelerating decisions, improving cross-domain coordination, and enabling operators to act with speed and precision.

Core C5ISR integration capabilities include:

• Integration of sensing, C2, cyber, and electronic warfare systems into a unified operational architecture
• Secure real-time data sharing across systems and mission partners
• Multi-domain awareness across air, land, sea, space, and infrastructure
• AI/ML decision support for faster threat assessment and coordination
• Coordinated autonomous workflows from detection to engagement
• Scalable architectures from site protection to homeland defense

Continuous innovation to stay ahead of evolving threats

Our experts continuously advance capabilities through rigorous testing, evaluation, and integration at our CUAS Center of Excellence. By assessing emerging technologies, validating system performance, and rapidly incorporating new capabilities, we ensure our solutions remain effective against evolving UAS threats across all operational environments.

Core innovation and improvement capabilities include:

• Testing and evaluation of emerging sensors, software, and effectors
• Validation against Group 1, 2, and 3 UAS threats
• Continuous refinement of detection, fusion, and response performance
• Rapid integration of new technologies into mission-ready systems
• Optimization of sensor and effector fusion to improve accuracy and speed
