Anti-Drone Technology A Strategic Overview & Emerging Trends

July 05, 2025

What is Anti-Drone Technology?

  • Anti drone systems are used to detect and/or intercept unwanted drones and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
  • Hostile drones may be used to deploy explosives, smuggle contraband or gather intelligence on sensitive assets, and the proliferation of low-cost UAVs has led to an increase in incidents.

Anti drone system is also known by CUAS (Counter- Unmanned Aircraft System)

Anti-Drone Technology

ANTI-DRONE TECHNOLOGY Types:

  • Electronic System
  • Laser System
  • Kinetic System

Each System Can be Implemented in these Platform:

  • UAV Based
  • Handheld
  • Ground Based

Technology In Trends

  • Laser and high Power Microwaves System:- Military agencies across the world are investing in high-energy lasers and microwave technology for countering drones
  • Artificial intelligence System:- The growing interest in C-UAS solutions is one indication of the increasing use of UAS-based approaches to warfare. Artificial intelligence (Al) is a with potentially significant implications for national security.

Handheld anti-drone systems can be operated by a single individual by hand. Many of these systems resemble rifles or other small arms. Handheld anti-drone systems mostly use nets and RF and GNSS jammers. They provide a safe countermeasure against a wide range of drone models.

Ground-based anti-drone systems are designed to be used from the ground. Different electronic systems such as radars, EO- IR systems, acoustic systems, RF and GNSS jammers, can be used as ground-based anti-drone systems.

UAV-based anti-drone systems are designed to be mounted on drones. They are designed to be portable, deadly, and cost- effective. They can counter a single or a swarm of target drones entirely autonomously using proprietary onboard Al and advanced machine vision processing.
