DroneShield Ltd has announced it is sharing the 6th edition of its C-UAS Factbook.
The Factbook covers key trends in the C-UAS market. This includes the review of the emerging UAS threat and its key categories, UAS types and capabilities.
Key threat categories include:

The Factbook considers various types of UAS detection sensors, including radiofrequency (RF) sensors, radars, acoustics, optics, and multi-sensor systems. It also reviews and compares various UAS effectors, including jammers (control link and GNSS jamming), spoofing, directed energy, counterdrone drones, other kinetic solutions, and layered C-UAS defeat options.
The Factbook finally reviews types of counter-UAS providers, ranging from start-ups and project companies, across to prime contractors, to established small businesses.
