Sentrycs is to integrate its Cyber over RF technology into Rafael’s Drone Dome system.
Rafael’s modular Drone Dome is already operationally deployed, providing 360-degree, all-weather protection against hostile drones. It combines radar, SIGINT/RF sensors, EO sensors, jamming systems, and a centralised C2 centre to detect, track, and intercept aerial threats.
The integration of Sentrycs’ Cyber over RF technology adds an additional layer of intelligence to Drone Dome’s defence architecture, enabling the system to distinguish between authorised and unauthorised drones, reduce false alarms, pinpoint both the drone’s location and that of its operator, and identify in real time the communication frequencies being used.
Sentrycs’ technology interacts directly with a drone’s communication protocols, making immediate identification and tracking possible as soon as a signal is detected. By analysing the protocol-level communication between drone and operator, the system offers situational awareness, including operator location estimation. With no dependency on preloaded signal libraries, the system is designed to analyse and respond to new or modified drone platforms while ensuring that only unauthorised threats are engaged. Once a hostile drone is identified, the system assumes control, guiding it to a pre-defined landing zone without the need for jamming or kinetic engagement.
