PLEASANT GROVE, Utah , July 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Fortem Technologies is proud to announce the successful partnership with MBDA, showcasing an innovative new effector concept for Sky Warden at the Farnborough International Airshow 2024. This collaboration highlights the advanced capabilities of Fortem's DroneHunter® technology, integrated into MBDA's Sky Warden counter-uncrewed aerial systems (C-UAS) modular solution. MBDA recently demonstrated the effectiveness of the Sky Warden system during an operational event in Italy , impressing 17 customer delegations with its ability to neutralize a wide range of offensive drone threats in realistic operational scenarios.
The Sky Warden system utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) to assist human operators in identifying and classifying threats from its comprehensive sensor suite, including radar, passive RF, and electro-optical cameras. This enables the system to automatically assign the most appropriate effector, maximizing efficiency and response time. A key advancement showcased at the airshow is the new ground-launched anti-air munition developed in collaboration with Fortem Technologies.
This effector is designed to defeat Class 1 and smaller Class 2 uncrewed aircraft systems (sUAS) and loitering munition threats. Featuring an independent warhead design, operators can deploy this new drone platform instantly on the battlefield. Tests have proven its effectiveness and lethality.
