01The problem
The battlefield is asymmetric.
A drone costing a few hundred to a few thousand dollars can threaten infrastructure worth hundreds of millions, and force a defensive response that costs orders of magnitude more.
| Threat cost | A commercial or FPV-class drone: a few hundred to a few thousand dollars. |
| Asset at risk | Hundreds of millions per exposed site: reactors, terminals, runways, surgical units. |
| Cost asymmetry | A multimillion-dollar interceptor against a drone costing a fraction of that. Reported ratios reach 100-to-1 and beyond. |
| Design target | Defeat the threat at a fraction of legacy cost, deployed by one operator in minutes. |
02The coverage model
One unit, one ring. Network the rings.
Each TDS-S holds a 500 m protection radius. Units network into continuous theater coverage: add a crate, extend the perimeter.

03How it works
Detect. Classify. Decide. Engage.
01
Detect
360° electro-optical scan, day and night. IR fusion to the full 500 m envelope.
02
Classify
Edge-AI separates UAS from birds, aircraft and traffic. No cloud.
03
Decide
Operator-in-the-loop by default. Fully autonomous mode for 24/7 cover.
04
Engage
Kinetic interceptor defeats the UAS. Effective against jamming-resistant FPV and swarms.
Engage
A kinetic answer.
04Protected sites
High-value sites, close to people.
SECTOR N
Field hospitals
Mobile surgical units, casualty evacuation.
SECTOR E
Power plants
Reactors, substations, gas terminals.
SECTOR S
Airports
Runways, taxiways, perimeter.
SECTOR W
Ports
Quay, terminal, anchored fleet.
