HYDRA
A radio frequency drone detection system that analyses electromagnetic spectrum signatures to identify drones and their remote controllers. Available in three variants (HYDRA 100, 200 and 300) with detection ranges up to 7 km, it operates in stationary, mobile and vehicle-integrated configurations. Its algorithms are tuned to drone-specific RF signatures, keeping false alarm rates low by filtering out birds and other aircraft. HYDRA has been navalized for integration aboard French Navy patrol vessels.
MEDUSA
A multi-band digital jamming system that neutralises drones by disrupting radio frequency communications across eight frequency bands spanning 400 MHz to 6 GHz. The primary model, MEDUSA 150, covers Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and VHF/UHF protocols and is compact enough for rapid deployment in stationary, mobile or vehicle-mounted roles. Multiple MEDUSA units can be combined to extend coverage across larger areas.
CHIMERA
A combined detection and jamming system designed for the self-protection of mobile units, vehicles and convoys. The CHIMERA 200 offers omnidirectional and directional RF detection within a 1.5 km radius and can emit jamming across up to five frequency bands simultaneously. Its modular, vehicle-integrable design allows it to transition between embarked and disembarked operations without interruption.
