DroneCannon Mk2

Long Range, Highly Effective Countermeasure

Item Number: 105

The DroneCannon Mk2 is DroneShield’s next generation fixed site countermeasure with improved disruption capabilities, size and durability. The device offers non-lethal and non-kinetic countermeasures, forcing UAS to either ground at the point of disruptions or return-to-home. The DroneCannon is also effective against swarm attacks and can counter numerous UAS within range.

DroneCannons are controlled through DroneSentry-C2 ‘Command-and-Control’ User Interface. Operators can view live coverage, alerts and setup automatic or manual engagement for defeat of threats detected by the system; as well as setup of predefined UAS exclusion zones for early warning alerts and autonomous defeat.

The DroneCannon forms a part of the DroneSentry fixed site C-UAS system providing defeat with 90 degree coverage for a single unit to up to 360 degree coverage with four units mounted on the mast.

Also available as a stand alone countermeasure, the DroneCannon can operate without a detection system and easily integrates into existing security systems.

DroneShield’s C-UAS defeat capabilities do not involve protocol manipulation or “cyber” tactics, given the limitations of those methods. Our defeat technologies offer non-kinetic jamming for controlled management of response to threats.

Advantages

  • Fast Response - Instant activation RF Disruption

  • Scalable - 360 degree coverage with four sensors combined on a single mast

  • Non-lethal Countermeasure - UAS are either forced to ground at the point of jamming or return-to home (back to the controllers predesignated position)

  • GNSS Jamming - Interrupt UAS navigation capability, forcing targets to ground, landing in a controlled descent

  • Immediate Video Cease - Interrupts video link (transmission) to the drone controller if controller is in disruption range

  • Stop the Swarm - effective countermeasure to drone swarm attacks from multiple positions

  • Autonomous - Integrates with DroneSentry for an automatic detect-and-defeat, or, optionally, man-in-the-loop
