According to a General Defence Linkedin post (translated by google translate):
“On the occasion of the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Monza, one of the most prestigious and followed sporting events in the world, safety was guaranteed not only on the ground but also in the sky. The strategic collaboration between General Defence and D-Flight (ENAV Group) has made it possible to deploy an advanced air protection system, creating a real “anti-drone no fly zone” over the Autodromo Nazionale area.
“Thanks to the implementation of the anti-drone system developed by General Defence, in synergy with the ENAV Group’s expertise in airspace management, it has been possible to monitor and neutralize any threat deriving from the improper use of remotely piloted aircraft. The initiative represented a fundamental step for the protection of the public, professionals and drivers, ensuring the conduct of the event in total safety.
“The system, based on technologies for detecting, identifying and countering unauthorized drones, worked in real time, integrating with civil airspace control procedures. This perfect integration has allowed the creation of an invisible but highly effective security barrier, capable of guaranteeing the protection of one of the most followed sporting events internationally.”
“The partnership with ENAV confirms the importance of creating a system between industrial and institutional players to face new challenges related to aviation safety” – said Francesco Colandrea, CEO of General Defence. – “The Monza Grand Prix was a world-class test bed to demonstrate the effectiveness of our technology.”
