On the issue of protecting objects from malicious UAVs

Conventional small arms are not highly effective in the fight against unmanned aerial vehicles, and their use entails the risk of causing harm to bystanders or company employees. There are no exceptions to various types of laser weapons, capable of hitting low-flying small drones, but dangerous for people and animals. The same can be said about anti-aircraft guns that fire a fragmentation projectile with a barometric sensor.

What can be the means of suppressing UAVs

Currently, methods of countering UAVs that are safe for others and property are widely used :

  • special radio interference that is tuned to the UAV data exchange channel. It is also possible to establish interference against GPS/Glonass;

  • the use of infrared spotlights that make objects invisible to cameras mounted on UAVs;

  • formation of invisible air vortices near the protected area;

  • installation of protective networks;

  • development and use of special drones designed to combat unmanned aerial vehicles devices.

The task of detecting and disabling attacking drones is no longer new and is moving to the forefront, becoming the most important activity aimed at ensuring security. In order to establish a systemic countermeasures against UAVs, technical means come to the fore.

The most popular anti-drone systems

Domestic manufacturers prefer to focus on systems that can detect drones that pose a threat, identify them and neutralize them. Research and Production Center NELK offers representatives of the target audience a wide range of diverse systems capable of detecting UAVs and building comprehensive protection at close and remote approaches.

A wide variety of systems are produced: stationary, mobile and portable. Some of them are focused only on detection, while some have in their functionality the ability to set up radio interference and devices for neutralizing aircraft in another way. NELK is a company that is engaged in the development of original systems and their production. If necessary, the devices can be installed at the client's site. Staff training and ongoing technical support are available. The company has been operating since February 23, 1994, creating effective security systems. One of the most relevant areas of work should be considered the creation and production of anti-terrorist equipment.
