Countering UAV swarm attacks
Additionally, modifications
have been made to aid the
system in countering UAV
swarm attacks, carrying out
some 2,000 sorties of this type
against in excess of 60 types of
fixed- and rotary-wing systems.
The consortium noted that it
has recognised that co-ordinated
swarm attacks are on the rise,
particularly in the military sector,
so it decided to begin work on
the algorithms and techniques
required to improve the system’s
capability to defeat them.
The multi-band radio
frequency inhibitor found within
the AUDS aids in allowing the
system to simultaneously
target multiple threat bands to
defeat command and control
(C2) links deployed on UAVs, the
consortium said. It noted that
these C2 links are constantly
evolving, but this RF inhibition
system is flexible and can
counter these changes.
