Counter-Unmanned Aerial System (C-UAS) combining hard-kill and soft-kill effectors on a single vehicle platform. Integrates a high-energy laser effector for silent, low-cost engagement of small drones at short range, a 20mm automatic cannon for hard-kill at medium range, and electronic warfare jamming for soft-kill drone neutralization. Detection suite includes radar, electro-optical sensors, and RF detection to identify and track multiple drone threats simultaneously. Designed to protect deployed forces, forward operating bases, and critical infrastructure against the growing swarm drone threat demonstrated in recent conflicts. Under development with prototype demonstrations ongoing, driven by urgent operational lessons from Ukraine and other theatres.

- Multi-layer drone defeat: jam, dazzle, kinetic
- 10km detection range for early warning
- Vehicle-mounted for expeditionary ops
- French military qualification (UCAV)
- Scalable to fixed/mobile/ship-mounted
- Effective vs commercial drones — military UCAVs harder
- 3km jamming range for GPS-denied drones limited
- High cost per intercept
- Limited vs swarm attacks
