D-Fend Solutions announces EnforceAir2, a portable and powerful Counter-UAS technology
by DRONELIFE staff writer Walker Robinson
D-Fend solutions has released the latest version of its EnforceAir product, the EnforceAir2. EnforceAir 2 expands on and improves on the success of their previous product, EnforceAir, which received the 2023 Intersec Homeland Security/Service of the Year Award. EnforceAir2 has increased drone detection and mitigation capabilities, as well as added operational flexibility for covert and mobile applications.
“EnforceAir2 strengthens D-Fend’s strategic market position as a pioneer and leader in the innovative RF-Cyber technology category for counter-drone detection and mitigation focused on control, safety and continuity,” said Yaniv Benbenisti, President and Chief Product Officer Director of D-Fend Solutions. “As the threat escalates and spreads across more diverse environments and scenarios, EnforceAir2 now brings unprecedented power, flexibility and portability to security personnel to face and overcome growing risks and challenging hazards.”
Ingestion detection and mitigation
Using radio frequency technology, the cyber-SDR hardware on the c-UAS can detect drones up to four and a half kilometers away and implement mitigation measures, such as disconnecting the target drone from its pilot or grounding the drone completely. This has significant applications in detecting and preventing threats to infrastructure and public safety.
The EnforceAir2’s compact footprint allows for additional operational flexibility. The reusable deployment kit can be deployed from stationary positions or fitted to vehicles. The kit is designed for rapid deployment and redeployment in evolving tactical situations.
In addition to these improvements in operational flexibility, D-Fend announced the Enforce Air Covert Backpack Deployment Kit. This feature puts the power and performance of the EnforceAir2 into a discreet, portable device, enabling drone detection and mitigation in stealth and ultra-mobile situations. A single battery can support up to two and a half hours of continuous operation and can be easily replaced for continuous, long-lasting operation.
As drone technology and affordability continue to grow, anti-UAS products are becoming increasingly vital to ensure safety and security against UAS misuse in a variety of environments and tactical situations. D-Fend Solution’s EnforceAir2 offers multiple improvements in performance, range and flexibility to detect and prevent drone incidents.
