Mondo Military Updated on 2024-02-16

Remind! The U.S. military has teamed up to counter the drone threat and deployed a number of advanced technologies**, including two microwaves** capable of destroying "swarm" drones. The widespread use of commercial drones in the Russia-Ukraine conflict has prompted countries** to actively seek security solutions. According to the United States, the global anti-drone market is expected to grow by 28 percent by 2030 on the basis of $1.4 billion in 20221%。

In order to effectively counter Russian reconnaissance drones, the U.S. Department of Defense has begun to invest in the development of a variety of anti-drone ** systems to ensure security on the battlefield. Here are 10 types of anti-drone systems that have been put into use by the U.S. military in recent years:

Vampire ISR Modular Precision Rocket System: Supplied by L3 Harris Technologies, this modular** system can be assembled on a vehicle or on the ground to destroy drones with an independent stabilized targeting system.

SMASH 2000L High-Precision Rifle Intelligent Optical Sight System: This system developed by Israel's Smart Shooter uses a high-precision optical sight to achieve precise targeting of small drones through artificial intelligence, assisted vision, and advanced algorithms.

Dronegun Tactical Drone Electromagnetic Interference Gun: Designed by Droneshield, it interferes with the communication between the target drone and the pilot through electromagnetic signals, forcing it to land or return to the target location.

Lattice System and Sentry Tower: Anduriel Industries was awarded a nearly $1 billion contract by the U.S. Special Operations Command. Among them, the "watchtower" system consists of optical, microwave and infrared detection systems, and the "grid" is an AI-driven sensor fusion system.

Thor's Hammer Microwave Anti-Drone System (MJ LNIR): This system developed by the U.S. Air Force uses microwave energy to destroy small drones and can be easily deployed and perform combat missions in a short period of time.

Silent Archer: Provided by SRC, it uses advanced radar technology to detect and jam "low, slow, small" drones.

Medusa Multi-Domain Unmanned System Jamming System (MEDUSA): Developed by SRC, it integrates multiple anti-drone systems to detect and jam small unmanned aerial vehicles.

M-LIDS Air Defense System: Ku-band phased array radar system and Coyote air defense cruise missile system: Provided by Raytheon Technologies, it supports the Army in detecting and shooting down drones.

Leonidas High-Energy Microwave Anti-Drone System: A system manufactured by the company Epirus that is capable of precisely targeting individual drones or creating microwave barriers.

The Titan Combat Drone System: Powered by Bluehalo**, is a portable system capable of providing mobile defense capabilities to soldiers.

The deployment of these anti-drone systems demonstrates the U.S. military's excellence in science and technology to counter the increasing threat of drones. May these innovations help the military defend its homeland and defend peace on the battlefield.

In this era full of scientific and technological innovation, the continuous evolution of anti-drone technology provides strong support for military defense. The deployment of these advanced systems is not only a response to the drone threat, but also a thoughtful consideration of future conflict patterns. With the booming global anti-drone market, countries** and military institutions are actively seeking more advanced and efficient solutions.

With the widespread use of commercial drones, the military has had to adapt to new threats, which has also contributed to the acceleration of technology research and development. In the face of the fierce competition between drones and anti-drones in the Russian-Ukrainian war, these anti-drone systems are not only a weapon of military force, but also an important guarantee for the safety of soldiers' lives. In this war of technology, scientific and technological innovation has become a sharp sword to defend the country.

The investment and research and development of the US military have not only improved the advanced level, but also promoted technological innovation in the field of anti-UAV. The successful application of these systems not only has far-reaching military significance, but also leads the direction of future warfare at the technical and strategic level. In this digital arms race, embracing advanced technology has become an inevitable choice for maintenance.

However, the development of technology never ends. In the military realm, we must always be alert to new threats and continuously improve the performance and intelligence of our counter-drone systems. It is only through continuous innovation and technological progress that we will be better able to cope with the complexities of future wars.

In general, the rapid development of anti-drone technology has brought a new dawn to military security. The leading position of the US military in this field has provided technical reference and reference for countries around the world, and has also contributed to the maintenance of global peace and stability. May these anti-drone systems not only shine on the military battlefield, but also play an active role in the process of building a peaceful world. Let us look forward to the pinnacle of science and technology in the future and contribute more possibilities to world peace.
