D-Fend Solutions, a pacesetter in radio frequency (RF), cyber-based, non-kinetic, non-jamming, counter-drone detection and takeover mitigation technology, has announced its prolonged participation within the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) Airport Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Detection and Mitigation Research Program. This system is designed to reinforce the protection and efficiency of airport and National Airspace System (NAS) operations.
The corporate’s core Counter-UAS system, EnforceAir, was recently tested at Syracuse Hancock International Airport (SYR), marking its deployment at a second airport site. The system had previously been chosen for the FAA Program at Atlantic City International Airport (KACY).
The FAA program goals to be certain that technologies developed, tested, or deployed by federal departments and agencies to detect and mitigate potential risks posed by errant or hostile UAS operations don’t adversely impact the protected and efficient operation of the NAS. The evaluation also ensures that EnforceAir doesn’t interfere with protected airport operations, aircraft navigation, or air traffic services.
D-Fend Solutions’ rapid progression from initial testing at one airport to further assessment at a second airport is a major achievement for program participants. This progression demonstrates that their product performs as advertised, generates reliable and accurate data, and warrants further evaluation in one other operational setting.
Zohar Halachmi, Chairman and CEO of D-Fend Solutions, stated, “EnforceAir’s quick progression from first trials at Atlantic City to additional evaluations at Syracuse on this demanding and vital FAA program validates D-Fend’s vision of enabling a flourishing drone-powered society, specifically in aviation, by supporting the expansion of protected and secure drone adoption and integration while applying innovation to defend against rogue drone threats at airports.”
This program expansion follows a series of successful milestones achieved by the corporate in recent months, including the expansion of the US team and the launch of EnforceAir2.
D-Fend Solutions is a number one provider of counter-drone takeover technology, offering full control, safety, and continuity during rogue drone incidents across complex and sensitive environments. The corporate’s core offering, EnforceAir, focuses on probably the most dangerous drone threats in military, public safety, airport, prison, major event, and important infrastructure environments.
