October 31, 2024 by Miriam McNabb Leave a Comment

New Integrated Solution Combines RF and Radar Technologies for Advanced Airspace Security

SkySafe and Fortem Technologies have announced a partnership to deliver a fully integrated drone detection and mitigation solution, designed to combat the growing risk of unauthorized drone incursions. This solution combines SkySafe’s radio frequency (RF)-based detection technology with Fortem’s radar-based tracking and mitigation tools, providing a multi-layered approach to airspace security. The collaboration addresses the evolving security needs of critical infrastructure, public venues, airports, and sensitive locations across defense, government, and commercial sectors.

A Powerful Combination for Enhanced Airspace Security

The new solution leverages both RF and radar technology to improve detection accuracy and situational awareness, giving operators real-time control and monitoring capabilities. The combined system identifies, tracks, and neutralizes unauthorized drones with exceptional reliability and flexibility, tailored to meet diverse operational requirements.

Melissa Swisher, Chief Revenue Officer at SkySafe, expressed enthusiasm for the collaboration: “We’re thrilled to partner with Fortem Technologies to deliver this comprehensive drone detection and mitigation solution to the market. Our collaboration unites the best in RF and radar-based detection and mitigation, offering our customers unparalleled security.”

Key Features and Benefits

This comprehensive drone detection system incorporates a range of features, enabling organizations to maintain secure airspace with confidence:

  • RF and Radar-Based Detection: The dual approach of RF and radar technologies offers broad and precise detection capabilities, allowing for accurate identification of drones across various environments and distances.
  • Automated Mitigation: Through seamless integration, the system can neutralize unauthorized drones in restricted airspaces using controlled, low-collateral protocols for safe interception and landing.
  • Real-Time Intelligence and Control: A centralized, AI-powered interface provides operators with real-time insights and threat assessment tools, enhancing their ability to respond swiftly to potential threats.
  • Scalability and Flexibility: The platform is designed to adapt to changing security demands and can be configured for specific operational needs as airspace security requirements evolve.

The combination of these features makes the solution a highly adaptable tool for protecting vital assets, including government facilities and commercial sites.

Matt Quinn, Senior Vice President, North America at Fortem Technologies, highlighted the value this partnership brings to clients: “This partnership with SkySafe allows us to combine our radar and RF technologies, creating a multi-layered approach that significantly enhances detection and mitigation capabilities. Our clients will benefit from the highest standard of airspace protection available.”

A New Standard in Airspace Security

With unauthorized drone activity on the rise, organizations need reliable solutions that offer both robust detection and proactive response capabilities. This collaboration between SkySafe and Fortem Technologies introduces a solution built to handle these challenges, ensuring safe and controlled operations in a variety of high-risk environments.
