C-UAS Drone Detection & Airspace Defense
Software-defined RF detection and tracking, AI threat fusion and an optional acoustic kinetic layer in one layered C-UAS stack — packaged four ways, from fixed installation to dismounted patrol.
One Airspace Picture, Layered to the Mission
Passive detection is the foundation — continuous, zero-emission, and deployable today. Threat fusion and reporting turn detections into decisions; the kinetic layer is added where the mission and legal authority call for it.
01 · DetectDetect & Track
- SDR-based passive RF, 360°, zero emissions
- 7–14 km fixed dome · 3–7 km mobile
- 550+ drone signatures; COTS, hobbyist and DIY
- Drone and controller flight path with pilot geolocation
- Unique device ID, friend list and repeat-intruder history
02 · FuseFuse & Report
- Sensor feeds fused with OSINT and geospatial sources
- Prioritized risk ratings and actor / network mapping
- Natural-language query with source-cited reasoning
- Time-stamped detection reports for incident response
- Analyst override and full audit trail
03 · OptionalIntercept & Defeat
- Acoustic, non-RF-emitting sensing with AI classification
- Defeats fiber-optic tethered and pre-programmed drones
- Operates in GPS-denied and RF-congested airspace
- Autonomous interceptors — no skilled operator required
One Platform. Three Ways to Field It.
Every SkyShield Dome configuration runs the same LOCH software-defined radio platform — long-range omnidirectional detection, AI classification and direction finding against a 550+ signature library that grows with every test and deployment. Each is operational in under 30 minutes.

SkyShield Dome
Detection softwareSkyShield Dome
Omnidirectional passive RF sensor with MIL-STD hardware. Detects, classifies and direction-finds drones and their controllers, flags friend and repeat-intruder units by unique ID, and identifies unknown / DIY builds with RF AI.
* Kinetic intercept (SkyShield Sentry) is available to qualified government end users where legally permitted, subject to export authorization, applicable licenses and a completed end-user certificate. Detection layers carry no equivalent restriction. Performance figures are manufacturer-published and vary with terrain, RF environment and drone type.
SkyShield Man Portable System
Handheld, mobile and portable all describe the SkyShield Mobile — the same SDR detection and direction-finding capability, scaled to the individual operator. Passive detection and alerting only.
MOLLE-mounted unit
Operator alert viewSkyShield Mobile
A single hardened case, one-person carry. The unit clips to standard MOLLE webbing and runs on rechargeable batteries, giving a dismounted element its own airspace picture without a vehicle, mast or external power. A DF antenna lets the operator walk toward the pilot, with audio alerts through an earpiece.

- Omni and direction-finding antennas
- Earpiece, MOLLE attachment and case
- Rechargeable batteries and charger
ATAK — the airspace picture on the team's map
SkyShield Mobile publishes detections and DF bearings as Cursor-on-Target, so every ATAK end-user device on the net sees the threat where the team already operates — no second screen, no second workflow.
- Drone type, frequency, DF bearing and detection time plotted on the shared map
- Compatible with tactical MANET radios; simple APIs for any digital battle management system or VMS
- Dome configurations feed the same picture from a laptop or C2 node
- Fully stand-alone when ATAK is not in use
ATAK is a U.S. Government (TAK Product Center) application; SkyShield integrates with it and is not affiliated with it.
