Australia is emerging as a global centre of excellence in counter-drone technology. From the battlefields of Ukraine to the skies above crowded public events, uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) are transforming both modern conflict and civil security.

DroneShield’s global leadership is driven by innovation, international partnerships, and commitment to Australian manufacturing, with 91% of 2024 revenue from overseas customers supporting national and global security.

DroneShield’s SensorFusionAI integrates diverse sensor data with advanced algorithms to improve threat assessment, reduce false alarms, and enhance real-time decision-making for the Australian Defence Force.

In an era where global security challenges demand rapid innovation and sovereign capability, Australia’s defence industry is stepping up and DroneShield is proud to be at the forefront.

Military forces must prioritise a counter to drone swarming tactics with which inexpensive, mass-produced drones can overwhelm defences. Modern high-energy, high-power microwave (HPM) systems are software-defined, making rapid updates possible as threat technologies and tactics evolve. 

HE Vasyl Myroshnychenko, Ukraine’s Ambassador to Australia, stresses the urgent need for Australia to bolster defences against drone warfare by adopting advanced detection and mitigation technologies, drawing on Ukraine’s experience and advocating international cooperation.

Enforcing compliance with drone regulations is not just a matter of robust public policy—it requires advanced counter-unmanned aerial system (CUAS) technology to detect and mitigate potential threats. As the UAE refines its drone regulations, solutions like DroneShield’s CUAS technology can play a crucial role in supporting authorities.

It is critical to note that current legislation does not adequately address emerging threats such as smuggling, espionage, or malicious use of drones against critical infrastructure.

The recent surge of drone sightings in New Jersey has captured national attention, raising questions about security, public perception, and the evolving role of drones in our airspace.

In a world where ‘AI’ is a buzzword, DroneShield believes focusing on Micro-AI is the right approach for C-UAS. It is redefining edge computing by handling mission-critical tasks without bulky infrastructure or massive power consumption. 

DroneShield’s SensorFusionAI builds an evolving model that is informed by all inputs over time, leveraging the strengths of each sensor while offsetting their weaknesses through Sensor Fusion and product integration.

Drones are now common among terrorist groups and fringe actors as they're cheap and easily accessible. Learn how counter-UAS can detect and prevent them from being used to cause harm

Data centers have become increasingly vulnerable to drone incursions and attacks given the sheer value of the almost insurmountable information they hold. DroneShield can provide data center operators with world-leading counterdrone – or counter-UAS (C-UAS) – protection equipment that is able to detect, identify, and neutralise intruding drones effectively and efficiently.

DroneShield provides its DroneSentry-C2 ‘enterprise’ command-and-control system to military and civilian users around the world, both in its flagship DroneSentry-C2 format, and the tactical, field commander based, DroneSentry-C2 Tactical.

Learn how DroneShield's specialized C-UAS solutions prevent drones from smuggling contraband into prisons, enhancing security and safety measures.

Drone use is well regulated in high-risk scenarios – including the airspace surrounding government, defence and airport facilities – but there remain substantial grey areas in civilian use of popular consumer grade unmanned aerial systems (UAS).

Oleg Vornik, CEO of DroneShield, weighs in on the Commonwealth government’s defence industry revitalisation plan.

What technique best defeats rogue drones? This question has surged into importance as threats from drones—becoming more and more capable and accessible—continue to increase dramatically.

Large-scale and open-air events in sports stadiums and other commercial venues have become ripe targets for drones and Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS)
