France’s DRONE VOLT has signed a partnership agreement with the Latvian company DK Unity, which specialises in the development of interceptor drones for anti-drone warfare.
“It will allow DRONE VOLT to represent and market all the NS1, NS2 and NS3 drone interceptors developed by DK Unity in France and French-speaking countries,” according to DRONE VOLT press release.
“With this partnership, DRONE VOLT completes its offer in the field of anti-drone warfare by relying on the technologies developed by DK Unity, used in particular by the Ukrainian army,” said the press release. “Based in Latvia, DK Unity is a technology company with a software-driven approach, designing and manufacturing next-generation autonomous UAV systems proven during operational deployments in Ukraine. These interceptor drones have proven their effectiveness thanks to resilient data links, flight computers resistant to disturbances and jamming and local navigation with a view to reuse. The DK Unity range marketed by DRONE VOLT includes:
- NS 1 —A low-cost light interceptor drone intended for the neutralization of reconnaissance and surveillance drones. The NS1 can reach 180 km/h, has a payload of 2 kg with day and night variants.
- NS 2 —An interception system designed to neutralize threats at longer distances. At 220 km/h, the NS-2 intercepts reconnaissance drones and medium-range munitions, while they are still on approach. It neutralizes them before they reach the firing parameters.
- NS3 – The NS-3 cruises at 210 km/h and with peak speeds of 350 km/h, overtaking and destroying Shakhed-type evasive drones and ISR drones that would avoid any conventional interceptor.
