New System Meets Unique Maritime Security Challenges with Advanced Technology
D-Fend Solutions, recognized for its radio frequency (RF) cyber-based, non-kinetic, non-jamming, counter-drone takeover technology, today unveiled the EnforceAir2 Maritime. This latest iteration of their EnforceAir2 system is specifically designed to cater to the unique demands of maritime and naval environments.
Specialized Design for Maritime Use
EnforceAir2 Maritime has been developed with the harsh conditions of open-sea and near-shore operations as its primary focus. The system is engineered to provide exceptional performance, crucial for the detection and neutralization of unauthorized drones that pose threats to maritime assets, ports, harbors, and vital transportation routes. Its advanced RF cyber technology ensures non-disruptive operations, maximizing safety and operational effectiveness.
“Naval and maritime counter-drone operations bring unique challenges that must be addressed without compromising safety or advanced communications,” explained Yaniv Benbenisti, President and Chief Product Officer at D-Fend Solutions. “EnforceAir2 Maritime, developed with insight gained through our deep experience with this sector, achieves this by supporting a scalable and non-disruptive system to detect, locate, and take control of rogue drones in maritime environments, ensuring operational continuity and protection for critical naval and maritime assets.”
Advanced Components Tailored for Maritime Conditions
The EnforceAir2 Maritime is equipped with several key components specifically adapted for maritime use:
- EnforceAir2 SDR – Maritime Version: This includes revised, maritime-tested materials designed to withstand severe environmental conditions at sea.
- Radome Antenna (Maritime Version): Featuring an ultra-wide-band that supports a broad frequency range and provides 360° azimuth coverage, suitable for ground-level and shipboard deployment.
- Maritime Cradles: These rugged MIL-STD 810H cradles are crafted for durability in extreme conditions, providing flexibility for rapid redeployments.
