The Manpack Drone Detector uses radio frequency (RF) sensing technology to detect drone signals between 400 MHz and 6 GHz. It can identify different drones, including hobby drones and FPV drones, in real time.
The lightweight system is designed for soldiers and can be carried and operated by one person while moving. It provides instant alerts and direction-finding support during operations.
Handheld Drone Jammer Neutralises Threats
The Handheld Drone Jammer works along with the detector to stop hostile drones. Developed under the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative, the jammer blocks drone communication and navigation signals.
It can disrupt GNSS and RF frequencies, forcing drones to lose control, crash, or return to their launch point.
