Counter-UAS

Orchestrating full-spectrum air defence

Challenge

Achieving near‑surface dominance is increasingly challenged by the rapid proliferation of UAS platforms operating at low altitude and in mass deployments.

Traditional C‑UAS approaches struggle to scale against volume, particularly in contested electromagnetic environments where fragmented sensors, disjointed command and control, and reactive engagements slow response and overwhelm operators.

Focusing solely on intercepting individual platforms drives high cognitive burden and cost, while leaving the underlying adversary control networks and command elements intact.

Solution

By fusing full-spectrum sensor capabilities into a unified operational picture, Cobalt provides comprehensive and persistent awareness of near‑surface threats and the electromagnetic environment.

Decision support systems accelerate the identification, localisation, and prioritatisation of both incoming tracks and their associated command nodes, allowing operators to neutralise both threat vector and threat source.

A wide range of layered effects can be pre-planned, deconflicted, and coordinated within the same operating zone - enabling scalable C‑UAS operations that ensure near‑surface dominance.

Cobalt for C-UAS

/01

Unify disparate capabilities

Integrate and correlate multi-echelon sensor feeds, CEMA systems and effectors into a single operational picture, removing the need to manually reconcile fragmented or noisy data

/02

Deconflict contested environments

Coordinate layered defence, EW, and EMCON across complex and contested environments. Cobalt enables full-spectrum visibility and management of sensor coverage, effect ranges and airspace to guide operations

/03

Find and fix threat sources

Identify, localise, and prioritise the command elements behind hostile UAS. By combining live sensor feeds with historical patterns, doctrine, and RF propagation, Cobalt guides operators toward likely pilot location

/04

Cross-cue optimal effectors

Cobalt automatically matches the most suitable response options to each detected threats, enabling operators to rapidly and efficiently neutralise multi-echelon threat profiles
