Drones & Counter-Drone Warfare
Global demand for drones and counter-drone solutions is growing rapidly
• The rise of drones in modern warfare in recent years is well
documented – media attention is expected to continue
• Low Cost - Drones provide both state and non-state actors the
opportunity to disrupt traditionally more powerful opponents
• Autonomous “swarms” of drones in future will provide militaries
with a highly adaptable and potentially decisive tool on the
battlefield
• Existing solutions are expensive & less effective - counterdrone (C-UAS) solutions are either highly costly i.e. missile-based
defences or easily thwarted i.e. electronic warfare
• “Hard-kill” or “kinetic” counter-drone solutions, like EOS’
Slinger product, are both economical and highly-effective
• In the future militaries will likely move to “directed energy”
solutions which are likely to prove even more economical on a
per-shot basis
