Drones are now commonplace in various sectors, from recreational use to military and security operations. But what happens when these drones pose a threat, especially in maritime environments? D-Fend Solutions has the answer with its newly launched EnforceAir2 Maritime, a specialized version of its proven counter-drone technology, designed to neutralize rogue drones in open-sea and near-shore settings. Additionally, the company is expanding its reach with the opening of a new office in London to better serve European markets.
EnforceAir2 Maritime: A Game-Changer for Maritime Security
The EnforceAir2 Maritime is designed to meet the unique challenges of the maritime environment, ensuring the safety of ports, harbors, and critical infrastructure. Unlike traditional jamming systems, which can disrupt essential communication networks, EnforceAir2 Maritime leverages advanced radio frequency (RF) cyber technology to detect, locate, and take control of unauthorized drones without interfering with vital maritime communications or navigation systems.
Key features of the system include:
EnforceAir2 SDR (Maritime Version): Built with materials tested for extreme maritime conditions.
Radome Antenna (Maritime Version): A wide-band antenna providing 360° coverage, suitable for both land and ship-based deployments.
Maritime Cradles: Rugged, military-grade mounts designed for durability and rapid redeployment.
Maritime-Grade Cables: Specialized cables adhering to rigorous safety and performance standards for maritime use.
Yaniv Benbenisti, president and chief product officer of D-Fend Solutions, underscores the significance of a safe, reliable counter-drone solution for maritime security. “Naval and maritime counter-drone operations bring unique challenges that must be addressed without compromising safety or advanced communications,” he says. “EnforceAir2 Maritime ensures operational continuity while safeguarding critical maritime assets from unauthorized drone threats.”
The system is also designed for seamless integration with existing naval defense networks, offering flexible, scalable deployment to meet varying security demands.
