2 sources · first reported Yesterday
NATO has tested a British-made counter-drone system, BlackTalon Ecosystem, in a training exercise in Latvia. The system was used to detect and track drones over a dense pine forest. Additionally, a German company, Mehler Protection, has developed a new ship-mounted counter-drone system that has passed 48 tests to protect ships from close attacks.
These counter-drone systems are significant for defense technology as they provide a crucial capability to detect and neutralize drone threats, enhancing the security of military personnel and assets. The development and testing of such systems demonstrate the ongoing efforts to address emerging threats in the domain of unmanned aerial systems.
