Growth in drone technology has set a new standard in modern warfare, and DroneShield’s SentryCiv is the new standard for airspace security via passive drone defence. To meet this growing concern, it’s not enough to simply design a solution that tackles the problems of today, rather, the technology must continually adapt to be effective. 

The modern battlefield is evolving faster than at any time in recent memory. As unmanned aerial systems (UAS) continue to proliferate—from state adversaries to irregular actors—the U.S. Air Force has recognized the urgent need to strengthen its counter-drone and air defense capabilities.

Australia is emerging as a global centre of excellence in counter-drone technology. From the battlefields of Ukraine to the skies above crowded public events, uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) are transforming both modern conflict and civil security.

It is critical to note that current legislation does not adequately address emerging threats such as smuggling, espionage, or malicious use of drones against critical infrastructure.

The recent surge of drone sightings in New Jersey has captured national attention, raising questions about security, public perception, and the evolving role of drones in our airspace.
